An easy delicious dish that goes well with rice!
Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 55 mins
Total Time 1 hr

Ingredients

  • 500 g Pork Belly
  • 4 slices Ginger
  • 5 cloves Garlic

Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp Light Soya Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Dark Soya Sauce
  • 3 tbsp Zhen Jiang Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Rice Wine
  • 60 g Stab Sugar (Brown Sugar in Piece)

Instructions

  • Cut the pork belly into cubes.
  • Boil a pot of hot water. When it's boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, put the pork belly in for 2-3 mins. This is to get rid of the oil/bloody/dirty stuff from the meat. When it's done, take out the pork belly.
  • In another pot, turn the fire to high heat, and put the pork belly, ginger, and the whole clove of garlic to stir-fry for a few mins.
  • Add all the seasoning in the pot. Let it cook in high heat for 5 mins.
  • Then turn the fire to low heat, cover with a lid and leave it to cook for 45 mins. There should be water coming from the meat, so there should be some "sauce" while it cooks. Stir it from time to time to make sure all sides of the pork could braise in the sauce.
  • When 45 mins are up, it's ready! Make sure you cook enough rice, the pork and sauce are best to go with just plain rice!
