Pork Belly with Salted Fish 咸鱼花腩煲

I have always wanted to try to cook this Pork Belly with Salted Fish 咸鱼花腩煲 dish at home.  My first taste was in a JB zi char stall.  To be honest, I always find that the zi char stall in Singapore is no longer as good as in Malaysia.  Here, the taste just lacks that oomph factor.

I am glad that the dish turned out well and was enjoyed by all.

This goes really well with jasmine rice.
BTW, anyone knows how to grow fat spring onion?  Mine is terribly skinny.
