- When the pork has cooled down, cut into 1 ½ cm thick slices.
- Heat 3 tbsp oil in hot wok. Add the pork slices, season with salt, fish sauce, dark soya sauce and sugar.
- Stir fry till nicely brown. Add garlic and salted mustard. Add wine.
- Cook until almost dry. Remove from heat.

- Steam for about 2-3 hours until the meat is tender and full of flavour.
