Steps
- 1
Slice the pork belly thinly and marinate with a little bouillon powder and turmeric powder. Let it sit for 15 minutes. Finely chop the wild betel leaves and crush the garlic. Mix the fermented rice with a little water, stir well, then strain through a sieve until smooth. Add a bit of turmeric powder and mix evenly.
- 2
Cut the eggplant, banana, and tomato into wedges. Halve the mushrooms. Heat a pan and sauté the garlic until fragrant, then add the pork and stir-fry until it firms up. Add the eggplant and sprinkle with a little turmeric powder, stirring to combine.
- 3
Stir for about 5 minutes, then gradually pour in the fermented rice mixture. Add a bit more water so the liquid just covers the eggplant. Cover and simmer over medium heat. Once it comes to a boil, add the banana and season with the listed spices to taste.
- 4
Add the tomato and fried tofu, then finally add the wild betel leaves. Stir well and turn off the heat.
- 5
Place rice vermicelli noodles in a bowl, ladle the broth with tofu, eggplant, and banana over the noodles, and serve with fresh herbs. This dish is especially refreshing and delicious during hot weather.
