METHOD

Pork Belly

  • Season the pork belly chunks with salt and pepper. Heat a splash of oil in a Dutch oven (or heavy based saucepan with a lid) over high heat.
  • Sear off the pork belly chunks in batches to brown them on all sides. Do this in batches to that you do not crowd the pan. Drain the pork on a pie ce of kitchen towel and set aside.

Sticky ClemenGold® Sauce

  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and in the same pot with the pork fat and oil add the garlic, ginger, and chilli. Fry for a minute until fragrant.
  • Add in the ClemenGold® juice and all the sauce ingredients and stir well to combine. Add the pork belly back to the pot and stir to coat it evenly in the sauce.
  • Pop the lid on the Dutch oven and simmer for 1 hour stirring occasionally.
  • After 1 hour, remove the lid to allow the sauce to reduce and thicken. At this point, check the pork for tenderness and keep checking periodically. When the pork is tender, and the sauce is thickened you're ready to serve with fluffy rice and tasty toppings.
