How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh mustard greens
- Choose mustard greens with uniformly beautiful green leaves, that are not wilted, eaten by pests, or bruised.
- The best time for mustard greens is from September to April of the following year. During this time, the greens will be very young, with green, thin leaves and thick stems.
- Do not choose mustard greens that have flowered, as they will be old and very bitter and pungent.
How to choose fresh and delicious pork
- Choose pieces of meat that have a rosy color, dry and firm texture, with the fat and meat tightly attached to each other.
- Fresh and delicious pork usually has a dry surface; when pressed with your hand, it feels elastic, and it has a distinctive aroma of meat when smelled.
- Avoid selecting pieces of meat with dark or pale colors, where the fat and meat are separated, the texture is less firm, and when pressed, juices flow out with an unpleasant fishy smell. This could indicate that the meat has been stored for a long time or has been injected with chemicals.

Prepare the ingredients
After purchasing the mustard greens, cut off the roots and any wilted leaves. Rinse the greens several times with water, drain, and then cut into pieces about 2 finger lengths long.
For the pork, rub it with a little salt, wash it clean with water, then let it drain. Next, slice the meat into thin pieces suitable for cooking and place them into a bowl.
Chop off the roots and any bruised or wilted leaves from the green onions, rinse them clean, and let them drain. Place the green onion tops into a mortar with 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper, and use a pestle to crush it finely. Chop the green onion leaves into small pieces.

Put the cut meat into a bowl along with the spice mixture including: mashed onion and pepper, 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Mix well and marinate the meat for about 10 minutes.
