What it is
Tender chunks of mutton belly braised in a rich, aromatic dark soy sauce and fermented red bean curd based gravy, with ginger, garlic, and Chinese spices, served in a sizzling claypot. Modified to exclude high-carb root vegetables like yam and turnip.
Key ingredients
Mutton belly, ginger, garlic, spring onion, fermented red bean curd (南乳), dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, star anise, cinnamon, dried orange peel.
If you order it anyway
Crucially, request no yam (芋头) or turnip/daikon (萝卜) and no added sugar or starch in the braising liquid. Ensure fermented red bean curd is low in sugar.
Watch out for
Fermented red bean curd often contains sugar. Braising liquid can have significant hidden sugars and cornstarch for thickening. Yam and turnip are high in carbs if not excluded.
