Stir-fry roast pork with leeks ~ 大蒜炒燒肉


This dish doesn't need much introduction and no recipe whatsoever.  A very homey dish that is popular when one goes to have plain white Teochew porridge for it does pair very well with it.  I stir-fried this with my leftover homemade roast pork belly and what did I serve with it?   Plain white porridge, of course :)
