      @@fahrz7834 That is not what halal is, please stop embarrassing Muslims with false information. Halal is to determine whether the animal was blessed by prayer before slaughter. It has nothing to do with pork or alcohol, those are just not permitted in the religion. Similar to Judaism and Kosher meat.

      What halal is how the meat gets cut up in a special way and said a prayer, but also us Muslims cannot eat pork or drink alcohol or any of those things

    8:29 it's easy to make, you can pick it up at any Chinese grocery store for ingredients
    MINI STICKY RICE WRAPPED IN BAMBOO LEAVES (TOISAN PORK and CHINESE SAUSAGE JOONG/ZONGZI)
    36 dried zongzi (bamboo) leaves (3 leaves per zongzi)
    5-6 Cups uncooked short-grain sticky rice (also called glutinous rice, or "sweet rice")
    2 Tbsp light soy sauce (for seasoning rice) [I used gluten-free tamari]
    2 tsp salt (for seasoning rice)
    2 Tablespoons avocado oil or any veg oil (for seasoning rice)
    1 lb fresh pork belly, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
    1/2 teaspoon salt (for the pork)
    2 teaspoons light soy sauce (for the pork) [I used tamari]
    1/2 tsp sugar (for the pork)
    2 tsp Shaoxing wine (for the pork)
    1/2 tsp ground white pepper (for the pork)
    1 tsp oil (for the pork)
    3-4 links of Chinese sausage (4 if you're making just salt pork and sausage; 3 if you're including optional mung bean filling
    Kitchen twine
    Optional ingredients:
    14 oz of green mung beans, shelled and split (these look yellow, actually) (14 oz package)
    4 tsp Salt, kosher (for the mung beans)
    2 tsp Avocado Oil or veg oil (for the mung beans)
    6 salted duck egg yolks
    Things we never put in Joong but other people like: Raw peanuts, chestnuts, rehydrated dried shitake mushrooms, dried shrimp, dried scallops, preserved duck & pork, red beans, shallots, 5-spice powder, bbq pork, bbq duck, dried abalone
    THE NIGHT BEFORE
    Prepare the bamboo leaves:
    36 to 40 bamboo leaves (use 2 leaves for each mini joong; 3 leaves for large joong)
    Place the dried bamboo leaves in a large stockpot with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes. Drain and refill with cold water. If you need to weigh them down with a plate, do so to keep them submerged. Soak the leaves overnight. The next day, wash and rinse each leaf front and back, keeping them in a large bowl or tub of water until wrapping time so they don’t dry out
    Prepare the sweet rice:
    Use 5 cups of short grain sweet rice for approximately 15 mini joong
    Soak the sweet rice overnight. The next day, drain completely in a colander. Mix the soaked, uncooked rice with light soy sauce [or tamari]. 2 tablespoons avocado oil and 2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl and set aside.
    Prepare the mung beans (if using):
    Soak the mung beans overnight.
    Drain. Mix mung beans with 2 tsp oil and 4 tsp salt
    Prepare the pork belly:
    1 pound pork belly, cut into 12 equal pieces
    2 teaspoons light soy sauce
    1/2 teaspoon sugar
    2 teaspoons shaoxing wine
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
    1 teaspoon oil
    MAKING THE JOONG:
    Prepare the additional ingredients/fillings:
    3-4 Chinese sausages (lop cheung): cut on the diagonal in bite-sized pieces
    6 salted duck egg yolks (if using): using a sharp knife cut each in two
    Wrapping the zongzi:
    Check out youtube videos for wrapping technique:
    2 leaved mini joong: (will make about 15)
    Using kitchen shears, cut off the stem end about half an inch
    Have ready the kitchen twine and sharp scissors for cutting the twine.
    If leaves rip anywhere during the wrapping process, you’ll need to start over and discard the ripped leaf. The recipe calls for extra leaves to mitigate these rips
    Take 2 leaves: layer the leaves with the shiny side up; larger leaf on the bottom. If you are OCD, you can place stem ends in opposite directions and trim off the tips to even out the ends. Fold lengthwise close to the centre. Then fold up about a third from the end facing you. Create a cone by opening up the leaves leaving the folds to the right.
    Fill with a little rice on the bottom, along with your egg yolk, pork belly and pieces of Chinese sausage. I used 3 small pieces of sausage for each mini joong. Use 1 tbsp mung beans if using.
    Top with a bit more rice.
    Fold the top of the leaf towards you so that it covers the rice. Ensure that you bend crisply at the fold making clean corners pointing out. Then fold down the edges of the fold to create a point using the trapezoid shape to guide you...all the time cupping your hands at the bottom of the cone so it doesn’t fall apart. Watch the youtube video. It's easier seen than explained.
    Tie the joong securely with twine. Cut off excess bits of the leaves with kitchen shears.
    Continue until your leaves and filling are used up.
    To cook the zongzi:
    Place joong in a large stock pot. You might need a plate to weigh them down. Fill the pot with cold water, until the zongzi are submerged. Place the pot on the stove over high heat. Once the water boils, turn the heat to low/medium-low, and let it simmer for 1-2 hours.
    Check the pot occasionally to make sure the joong are always submerged in water. Only add boiling water to adjust the water level-do not add room temperature or cold water.
    Remove and cut open the joong leaves to serve, discarding the twine and bamboo leaves.
    After cooling to room temperature, you may place in freezer bags, where they will last for months. When you want a quick meal, you can defrost by putting each in the microwave for 2-3 minutes or you can boil them for about 20 minutes to reheat.
    Yield: 12-15 zongzi
    it's over video for to make & cook.
