Pan Grilled Honey Garlic Pork

This dish will make you feel like you are eating in a restaurant. It’s sweet and savoury. The best part about this is it’s so simple and easy to make. 

Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1/2 kg pork belly 
• Salt and pepper, to season
• 1-2 tbsp of oil for pang grilling

For the Sauce:

• 1 tbsp butter
• 6 cloves of garlic, chopped
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar or white vinegar
• Parsley, chopped

Instructions:

1. Prepare the pork belly by seasoning with salt and pepper. 
2. In a heated pan, add oil. Add each slices of the pork. Fry each side about a minute or two on each side. Keep flipping. This will keep the pork tender. Keep frying each side until golden brown in color or you can check by cutting a part with kitchen scissors. Do not overcook or the pork will harden. 
3. In the same pan, remove a little bit of the excess oil from the pork. Then, add the butter and let it melt. Add the chopped garlic next and sauté it for a few seconds. Finally, add the remaining ingredients for the sauce and stir. Let it simmer for a minute on medium heat. 
4. Place the pan grilled pork bellies on top of the sauce and flip to coat the other side with the sauce. Let it cook for a while so the sauce can stick to the pork. 
5. To serve, place on a plate and garnish with some chopped fresh parsley.
