Notes
1. Peel the pork hind leg and cut into even pieces. Freeze for 1 hour. 2. Place the frozen pork in a meat grinder and mince until minced. Caution: Do not hold the grinder for too long to avoid burning it. It’s best to place some ice cubes around the outside of the grinder container to keep the pork cool. 3. Season: Add sugar, salt, cornstarch, pepper, sesame paste, and garlic powder. Add ice water and ice cubes. 4. Blend until the pork is thickened. 5. Place the pork on the tofu skin. Roll it up tightly. 6. Lower heat to low and add enough oil to cover the meat rolls. Fry over low heat for about 15 minutes, until the tofu skin is golden brown and the meat rolls are puffed up. Flip the meat rolls over to avoid burning them. Finally, let cool to room temperature before cutting.
