How to cook Kiu Nyuk (pork with yams)?

Kiu Nyuk is a traditional Hakka dish.
 It is one of the many dishes that i learned from my father.
I  adapted his recipe to suit my liking, so if you plan to follow this adapted recipe of mine, you can re-adapt it to suit your liking.

Ingredients 

1. Two big yams

2. 1KG of pork 

3. 2 spoonful of preserved bean curd

4. 5 teaspoons of cumin powder

   5. 1 teaspoons of Ajinomoto

     6.1 teaspoon of salt

   7.1 cup of water

   8.Cooking oil 

Steps 

1. Remove the skin of the yam and slice them .
    The thickness of the yam should be around 1.5 cm .

2.Slice your pork into slices as thick as your yam.

3. Heat the cooking oil (enough for frying the yams and the pork)

4.  Deep-fry the yams . Fry it around 2-3 minutes . Deep-fry the pork, around 4- 5 minutes

5. Season the fried yams and the fried pork in separate bowls with preserved bean curds, cumin powder , salt and ajinomoto. leave it for 3 minutes.

6. Arrange the slices of pork and yam (next to each other) in a metal ware.

7.Pour in the water so that the kiu nyuk will not be too dry. 

8.Steam it. when you feel that the tenderness of the yam suits your taste, it's time to eat. I usually did around 20-30 minutes with medium heat. 

This is my third attempt making this. Still need more practice but my father said the yams were good. usually my father uses the red preserved bean curds but i only had the white one. The type of the preserved bean curds affects the colour. Anyway I'm impressed with this one, not too bad I guess.
