Instructions
Marinate the pork strips
Cut the lean pork into 4.5 cm long, 0.2 cm wide, 0.2 cm thick strips, then mix with shredded scallion and ginger, soy sauce, egg whites, clear broth, Shaoxing wine, and MSG until well combined.
Wrap the pork in caul fat
Cut the pork caul fat into 30 cm long, 15 cm wide pieces (3 pieces total), divide the seasoned pork strips evenly into 3 portions, place each portion on a piece of caul fat, and roll into 20 cm long, 4 cm wide "caul fat rolls".
Seal and roast
Mix wet starch and egg whites into a paste, apply it to seal the open ends of the rolls, place in an oven and roast over high heat for 20 minutes until both sides are golden brown, then remove.
Cut and plate
Cut into small rectangular pieces and arrange neatly on a plate to serve.
