    Pray I Don't Burn Down the Kitchen.

    Love bacon? Of course you do. This is one of the more simple and easy recipes to make. It'll seem like it took forever to prepare, but fool your friends and family with this delicious dish! This recipe utilizes Chinese sweet pickled mustard cabbage called mui choy. Mui choy is preserved, or pickled Chinese cabbage that has undergone a fermentation process. It is commonly used in braised dishes (such as this pork belly dish) and other Chinese dishes. There are two types of Mui Choy, one is salted while the other one is sweetened.

    In this recipe we use the sweetened Chinese pickled mustard cabbage. You can try find it in your local Asian Supermarket, ask the employee if you're not sure...and pray he or she speaks English. Take a look at the video below for the full recipe on how to make this dish!
