Chinese-Style Glazed Pork Belly

Here is what you'll need!

Chinese-Style Glazed Pork Belly
Servings: 2-3

INGREDIENTS
500 grams pork belly, preferably lean
1 liter water
4 slices ginger
1 spring onion, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic, crushed
15 milliliters oil
25 grams brown sugar
45 milliliters light soy sauce
45 milliliters dark soy sauce
30 milliliters rice wine, shaoxing
250 milliliters water
Cooked rice, to serve
Sliced green onions, to serve

PREPARATION
Cut the pork belly into roughly 1-inch chunks.
Bring the water to a boil in a pot, then add the pork, ginger, onion, and garlic, cooking for about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the pork from the water and drain it on a plate lined with a paper towel. Discard the remaining water and vegetables. After cleaning and drying the pot, heat it with the oil over high heat.
Place the pork back in, cooking until browned. The oil may pop and splash so be careful.
Add the brown sugar, turning 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 and cooking for about 5-6 minutes or until the liquid has reduced into a thick glaze.
Add the water, stir, and cover the pot for about 45 minutes. Make sure the mixture is at a low simmer, not boiling. Check and stir every 10 minutes or so and add water if the pot is getting dry.
When the 45 minutes are up, remove the lid, checking to see if the sauce coats 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.

I’ve made this for dinner following this recipe for several times and always turn out well. Thanks Tasty!

If you ever eat a mandarin (the fruit that looks like an orange but it isn’t an orange)
Keep the peel
Hang it somewhere where it can dry out and where chemicals never reach (for example if you spray bug spray in your house)
The peel keeps forever
And when you cook this dish put a small piece of that peel in it when you simmer
The piece should be the size of a bottle cap
Don’t over do it cause too much can kinda ruin the taste
It brings this dish to another level

I just made this but instead of water at the end I added the leftover stock from earlier and it turned out great!

[mrright]

I've followed this recipe many times and I never got disappointed. Simple to follow but tastes amazing!

Don’t forget the ginger, green onions, cinnamon and star ansise when you boil for more fragrance

[stephanies]

BEAUTIFUL! Straight forward and to the point

This looks great. I'm trying to learn.

I've read that boiling the meat makes it taste so much better. Also, I followed a vegan chocolate chip cookie recipe from this channel and they came out soft and chewy. They were comparable to the (hufe) soft and chewy cookies that Costco bakery used to sell. So im gonna follow this pork belly recipe 😋

[taekookies]

I don't even eat meat but I like watching for inspiration for unique ways to make things.

[anjeleaht]

this looks pretty good though the music makes it sound like I'm watching a sexual scene lol

[gamesandcolors]

This is very authentic guys. Very good recipe!

[fyfe]

[Livebyfood]

Reminds me of my mothers cooking. She has also taught me a lot of traditional Indian recipes which I keep on trying. Hope I succeed in her footsteps.😍😍

[chengzhong]

Pretty legit, u can add hard boiled eggs and star anise to make it even better
