Time 12h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ pounds pork belly, skin removed
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (6 ounce) can pineapple juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
¼ cup ketchup
⅓ cup seasoned rice vinegar
1 teaspoon soy sauce, or to taste
2 teaspoons sambal chili paste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Use a sharp knife to make 1/8-inch deep cuts, spaced 1/2 inch apart, into the fatty side of the pork belly. Turn and repeat the cuts, crossing the first set at a 45-degree angle. Transfer into a shallow baking dish that's just large enough to fit the meat.
  • Mix salt, brown sugar, cayenne, and black pepper for dry rub in a small bowl. Apply it generously to both sides of the meat, sprinkling it on and then pressing it in. Press the sides of the pork belly into the dish to pick up any additional dry rub. End with the fatty side of the pork facing up. Cover the baking dish with foil and place it onto a sheet pan.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until tender when tested with the tip of a knife, about 3 1/2 hours.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Remove from the refrigerator and transfer meat to a cutting board. Cut pork belly into ½-inch slices.
  • Prepare glaze: Spoon 2 teaspoons rendered pork fat from the top of the drippings and heat it in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ginger and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in pineapple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and chili paste and bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce reduces by about half, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Cook pork belly slices in a dry, nonstick pan over medium-high heat until surface is browned a bit, about 2 minutes per side. Add a couple tablespoons of the pork belly "jelly" from the baking dish and the sweet and sour sauce. Cook until sauce reduces down to a glaze, 2 to 3 more minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and serve.

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

20 oz pork belly, lean
4 cups water, plus 250 milliliters, divided
4 slices of fresh ginger
1 spring onion, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
3 tablespoons shaoxing rice wine
cooked rice, for serving
sliced green onion, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut the pork belly into roughly 1-inch (2 ½ cm) cubes.
  • Bring 1 liter of water to a boil in a pot, then add the pork, ginger, onion, and garlic, and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Remove the pork from the water using a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with a paper towel. Discard the remaining water and vegetables.
  • Clean and dry the pot, then return it to high heat and add the olive oil. Return the pork to the pan and cook until browned. The oil may pop and splatter, so be careful.
  • Add the brown sugar, then reduce the heat to low. Stir continuously until the sugar has melted, caramelized, and coated the pork evenly.
  • Immediately add the soy sauces and rice wine, stirring continuously for 5-6 minutes more, or until the liquid has reduced to a thick glaze.
  • Add the remaining 250 milliliters of water. Stir, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes. Make sure the mixture is at a low simmer, not boiling. Stir every 10 minutes or so, adding more water if the pot is getting dry.
  • Remove the lid. The sauce should coat the pork in a very thick glaze. If it is too runny, continue to stir, uncovered, until the liquid has reduced.
  • Serve immediately over a bowl of rice and sprinkle with sliced green onions.

Tips:

  • Choose pork belly slices with a good amount of marbling, as this will help keep them moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the pork belly skin, making sure to cut through the fat but not the meat. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a crispy skin.
  • Season the pork belly generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the pork belly in a preheated oven until the skin is crispy and the meat is cooked through. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the pork belly slices.
  • Make the sweet chili glaze while the pork belly is cooking. This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop a rich flavor.
  • Brush the pork belly slices with the sweet chili glaze during the last 10 minutes of cooking. This will help caramelize the glaze and give the pork belly a sticky, flavorful coating.

Conclusion:

Pork belly slices in sweet chili glaze are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork belly is crispy and tender, while the sweet chili glaze is sticky and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
