Steamed Pork Belly with Yam

Bites Tale : I don't wanna be fooled....

Everyone at home like this dish very much. But no one at home knows how to make it. We normally bought from people... and it's getting more expensive. So 1 fine day, mum decided to try making this herself.

It was her 1st attempt making this, but thumbs up... great job, really... overall we gave her a 90%.
