Sichuan Twice-Cooked Pork: This dish gets its name from slicing boiled leg meat and stir-frying it again in a wok, hence 'Hui Guo Rou' (Twice-Cooked Pork). A small amount of rapeseed oil is heated in the wok, Doubanjiang is stir-fried until fragrant, then the meat is added and stir-fried over high heat until done. It's an excellent side dish that pairs perfectly with rice.
