How to make pork crispy cake (fresh meat mooncake)

A good diet is directly related to our health. It is easy to eat out, but health is not guaranteed. Therefore, even if we have limited time, we might as well make some simple dishes at home. Pork Crisp Cakes (Fresh Meat Mooncakes) are simple to make and can provide the body with a variety of nutrients it needs.

1. Knead the dough. It goes without saying that you need to add some salt and sugar. The dough on the left is made of oil and flour. Lard is the best choice. Of course, mutton fat, butter, and vegetable oil are also fine. In short, just put it in a ball. Don't knead it, otherwise it will be too chewy after baking. Also, you can use more water because the oil is wrapped inside.

2. Let the dough rest and make the filling. It is better to use leaner pork to avoid being too greasy. A proper amount of chopped green onion, flour to increase the consistency, a small amount of salt, sugar, five-spice powder, ginger powder, pepper powder and other spices to remove the fishy smell. If you don't have them, forget it.

3. As mentioned before, stir in one direction until it becomes a thick paste. This is the dough.

4. Take a small ball and roll it bigger. The small cake on the left is made of oil dough. There are many ways to wrap oil pastry. One I know is to wrap it like a glutinous rice ball, then flatten it into a long strip, roll it up and flatten it again, fold it like a quilt, fold it up and flatten it, and wrap it like a thousand-layer pastry. In fact, the principle is the same as long as it can produce the effect. I made it based on the former method.

5. Wrap it and cut it into squares.

6. Roll into a roll

7. Press the opening downward to make it into a long strip.

8. When folding blankets during military training, I found that the number of layers is enough if I fold it in half. However, it depends on personal preference. The more layers, the crispier the texture.

9. I didn't pay attention and the dough was a little too big, so I divided it into two. I can be lazy here and just wrap all the dough at the beginning. Roll the pastry into a big pancake as the puff pastry and then use a knife to split it. The effect is similar and it saves trouble, but I have limited conditions here, so forget it.

10. Wrap it with the opening facing downwards. I couldn't wrap the opening anyway because it was full of oil. It was non-stick. But after baking, there was no leakage, so it didn't matter.

11. In the oven, set at 150 degrees Celsius for at least one hour. Keep the temperature as low as possible and the time as long as possible.
