Ingredients:
-1/2 lb unsalted bacon (pork belly)
-approx 1 cup preserved turnips
-3 cloves garlic
-sugar and salt to taste
-1/2 tsp oil
What to Do:
Soak turnips in water for about 15 mins, wash and drain.Meanwhile, slice pork into thin pieces and mince garlic.Fry garlic in oil until fragrant, add pork and mix well before adding turnips.Stir-fry over high heat until pork is cooked; add sugar to taste and salt if needed.
Note:
Preserve turnips are very salty, which is why soaking it in water is necessary before cooking.However, soaking does not remove all of the saltiness, thus sugar is needed to balance out the flavors.Only add a pinch or two of salt to season the meat.
