Li Liangui Smoked Pork Flatbread (李连贵熏肉大饼) is a snack of north-east China: herb-stewed smoked pork eaten with shredded scallion and sauce inside a pan-baked flatbread.

Where it comes from

The dish is credited to Li Guangzhong (李广忠) of Luan County (滦县) in Hebei, whose childhood name was Li Liangui (李连贵), the name the dish carries. He created it in 1908 in Lishu County (梨树县), Jilin.

How it is made

The pork is specially selected, stewed with Chinese medicinal herbs and seasonings, and then smoked. The meat is billed as "fei er bu ni, shou er bu chai" (肥而不腻,瘦而不柴): the fat is not greasy and the lean is not dry.

The flatbread dough is mixed with oil and with the old stock left from boiling the meat, then baked on a griddle until it turns golden, soft inside and crisp outside.

How it is eaten

The smoked pork, shredded scallion and wheat-flour sauce (面酱) are either rolled up in the flatbread or tucked into the bread after it has been split open. Served this way it also goes by the name roujiamo (肉夹馍, meat in bread).
