Tierna panceta de cerdo estofada nestled in soft, pillowy homemade flatbreads. This classic street food from China's Shaanxi province delivers incredible flavor—sweet, savory, and slightly spiced with warming aromatics. The pork is slow-cooked until meltingly soft, then stuffed into freshly baked bread for an irresistible handheld meal.
Combine flour and yeast in a large bowl. Gradually add warm water, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Cut pork belly into large chunks, about 2 inches thick. In a hot wok or Dutch oven, add 2 tablespoons oil and swirl to coat. Add regular sugar and cook until it melts and turns amber. Add pork belly pieces and sear until browned on all sides.
Add rock sugar, both soy sauces, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, garlic, and ginger. Pour in enough hot water to cover the pork completely. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 1.5 to 2 hours until meat is fork-tender and sauce has thickened.
Punch down the dough and divide into 8 equal portions. Roll each into an oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown spots appear and the bread is cooked through.
Chop the braised pork into small pieces, mixing some of the sauce and tender fat into the meat. Slice the flatbreads open and stuff generously with the pork filling. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately while warm.
