Lu rou fan is the canonical Taiwanese bowl: minced pork belly slow-braised in soy and five-spice, glossy and fatty, ladled over hot rice with pickled cucumber.
Lu rou fan is Taipei's everyday lunch, brought from Fujian by Hokkien settlers in the 1700s. The dish is so central that the Council of Agriculture protested when foreign tourist sites called it 'Taiwanese stew'. Bib Gourmand-listed Jin Feng on Roosevelt Road in Taipei has been the canonical version since 1982. Variations: some kitchens serve it with hard-boiled egg, some add pickled mustard greens, some prefer ground rather than minced pork belly.
