I find that it is better to cook this dish and serve it in 2 ways. That is to divide the braised pork belly into 2 portions. One with just the pork belly and the other portion served with fried cabbage. The braised pork belly looks simple enough but it is tasty especially when you use good light soy sauce. For the braised pork belly, I used Kikkoman light soy sauce. It was so fragrant while the meat is braising. Of course, it tasted good too.
