Steamed Salted Fish with Pork

Sometimes when I'm lazy to do stir-frying I will steam my dishes instead. Well, steamed food are actually healthier as we don't have to use extra oil and we can preserved the nutritional value of the ingredients used. Another plus point is, the kitchen will stays clean! :)

Normally I will prepare such dishes a day ahead as I will marinate them first so the sauces can penetrate through the meat which will tenderise the meat and taste better too. What I used to do in the past was prepared a few bowls of the same thing and freeze them and only take out to steam when I felt like having steamed food.

A few weeks back I have some salted fish and pork belly left in my freezer so decided to clear them to create more space...
