Notes
Chef Notes:
- Pork Mince - The quality and ratio of lean:fat makes a difference. If you want it really tender, add more fat (I know a little more unhealthy) but for me a 70 lean : 30 fat ratio makes it tender! Best cut would be a shank or some belly.
- Marination Time - Let the roll mix marinade as long as possible. The flavour will mature if you've let it rested for longer.
- Shallow Fry - The purpose of the shallow fry is to make the tofu skin crispy and not to cook the pork. So don't be alarmed if your pork is still raw in the center when it comes out of the wok.
- Other Flavours - Play around with some flavours for the roll and sauce, you could replace the water chestnuts with some bamboo shoots, the five spice with cumin, pork with chicken or a combination of, add some shiitake mushrooms or even play around with different types of seafood? Scallops instead of prawns if your feeling rich?
