Guizhou Grill Pot (贵州烙锅) | Chinese Cooking Demystified

Laoguo! An absolutely awesome way of eating, this could kind of be thought as the pan-frying equivalent of something like hotpot or Korean barbecue. Just a chill meal to have with friends or family.

Written recipe is over here on /r/cooking:

As promised, the list of stuff we used here:

- Pork Belly
- Spam
- Guizhou-style dougan (pressed extra-firm tofu)
- Potato slices (rinse and soak the potato in water before using)
- Sweet potato slices
- Lotus root slices
- Guizhou rice cakes (these are quite sticky, the bog-standard mass produced rice cakes may be easier)
- Guizhou fern cakes
- Napa cabbage
- Broccoli
- Mild chilis (mostly for color, YouTube thumbnails and all)

As for the tortilla recipe, recently I've been adapting this via King Arthur flour: https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/simple-tortillas-recipe

I use lard for the oil. And while I like this high hydration dough for this, I *do* find that their recipe is a little... too high hydration. Maybe if I used KAF it'd make a difference? In any event, I cut it to about 60% (~179g), then kind of go by feel from that point. I also make smaller tortillas - going for ~12 instead of their ~8.

In any event, it's a nice recipe. It's a bit thicker than some tortillas I'm used to, but they're quite flaky and easy to roll. Feels almost like the midpoint between a tortilla and a roti, which I'm totally cool with.

And oh! If you're China-based, definitely check out Alessandro's cheeses! His QR code's hidden in his product list:
