Step 1

I am not a professional chef, so the cooking process is very arbitrary. Meat must be fresh meat, the taste is different. As for which cut, I like to buy breast meat. As for Chongqing, I bought it for 9 yuan a pound yesterday. The meat here is relatively tender, fat and lean, easy to cut, and very fragrant and delicious when fried. Cut the meat into long slices, it doesn’t need to be very thin, and certainly not too thick. Add salt, chicken essence, Sichuan peppercorns, and cooking wine evenly. You can grab it for more flavor and let it sit for more than 10 minutes. During the resting time, soak the sweet potato starch in water. No dry particles. We all use sweet potato flour made by ourselves in our hometown in the countryside, so we have to wait patiently for a while and be careful not to add too much water and then add flour again and again. After the meat is coded, add eggs. For 2 pounds of meat, you will get 5 eggs. Whole eggs are fine, don’t waste them. Both egg yolk and egg white can be used. Mix well with meat. Pour in the soaked starch and mix thoroughly. Illustration of how to make fried crispy pork, a famous snack in Chongqing 2

Step 2

Heat the oil, the oil must be boiled. The fire is always high, no need to turn it down. Hold the chopsticks and put them in one by one without turning them over. After you finish placing them, turn them over. Illustration of how to make fried crispy pork, a famous snack in Chongqing 3

Once fried, you can scoop it out. If you want the crispy meat to be crispy, you need to fry it again. Illustration of how to make fried crispy pork, a famous snack in Chongqing 4
