Pork Belly Nuggets

  • 1 pork belly piece (approx 1kg)
  • 1tbsp Chinese 5 spice
  • 1tsp Turmeric
  • 1tsp Ground Corriander
  • 1 tbsp Sugar/substitute
  • 30ml Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 30ml Soy Sauce
  • a few drops Sesame oil
  • Sriracha or chilli flakes if desired
  1. Cut up pork belly into 1 inch cubes
  2. Place in big frypan so they fit in a single layer
  3. Just cover with salted water (or add a splash of soy sauce)
  4. Cover fry pan and bring to a boil
  5. Reduce temperature and simmer for approx 45 minutes
  6. Remove the lid and turn up the temperature to evaporate the water
  7. This process renders the fat from the pork, and removing the water leaves the fat behind, which you then fry the pork in
  8. Once most of the liquid has evaporated, it should just stick to the pork, add your seasonings.
  9. Adjust salt/pepper/flavouring as desired
  10. Serve with asian coleslaw salad
