Pork Belly "Pad Woon Sen".

A riff on "Stir-fried Glass Noodles".**

Details in this post on the dinner topic.

 

** which is what "pad woon sen" (ผัดวุ้นเส้น) literally means, in Thai; while "glass noodles" = "cellophane noodles" = "mung bean noodles" &etc. There are, of course, similar dishes in the various related cuisines in SE and E Asia ranging all the way from Korea/Japan down all along E and SE Asia down to Indonesia. Usually the differences involve the sauces and seasonings used, sometimes the things one puts in or leaves out, and where one's initial "starting point" is. Mixtures and non-definable "which cuisine is this one from" iterations of this dish are, IMO, almost normative. :-) 

Like "Fried Rice".  :-D
