Five Spice Fine Blend

A Guide on How to Cook Braised Pork Belly

Prepare:

4 hard boiled eggs peeled

500g pork belly

2 tbsp dark soy sauce

Half a packet of Chinese Spices

1/2 tsp Five Spice Fine Blend

600ml water

1.5 bulbs garlic, separated & unpeeled

1 tbsp rock sugar to taste

White pepper ground to taste

Light soya sauce or salt to taste

 

Directions:

1. Slice pork belly to bite-sized pieces and marinate with some Five Spice Fine Blend.

2. In a large stew pot, add water and all the ingredients.

3. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer (with the lid partially closed) for about an hour, or until the meat is tender.

4. Add water a little at a time so as to avoid the stew from drying out.

5. Add hard-boiled eggs during the last 10 minutes of simmering.

Serve with rice or steamed buns.
