Critical Success Points
• Slice pork neck yourself for best texture.
• Stir-fry pork with leek, soy sauce, and cooking wine to remove odor and build flavor.
• Simmer stew for at least 15 minutes for potatoes to cook through and flavors to meld.
Safety Warnings
• Use caution when slicing raw pork; keep knife sharp and fingers clear.
• Hot oil may splatter when stir-frying; use a long spoon and avoid overcrowding.
