Caramelized Pork Belly

• servings: 3 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

1 lb pork belly (cut into cubes)

2 tbsp sugar (rock or white)

1 tbsp light soy sauce

1 tbsp dark soy sauce

1 tbsp brown sugar

4 tbsp neutral oil

Scallions

Directions

Add neutral oil and add sugar to your pan. Cook over medium heat until the sugar melts and turns golden.

Carefully add pork belly cubes into the caramel. Sear for 2 minutes, flip, and cook another 2 minutes until lightly browned.

Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and brown sugar. Stir until every piece is well coated.

Simmer on low until the sauce thickens and forms a glossy glaze that clings to the pork.

Serve over a fresh bowl of rice. Optionally torch the tops for extra caramelization, and garnish with scallions.
