Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons oil (canola oil)
- 1 head garlic, slightly crushed
- 1 1/2 pounds pork belly (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken (mixed chicken pieces, cut into serving pieces, I prefer all thighs!)
- 2 teaspoons whole peppercorn
- 3 bay leaves (or 4)
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 3/4 cup soy sauce (up to 1 cup, to taste)
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons vinegar (white or sugar cane)
How to Make
-
Note: instead of pork belly, you can use spare riblets - have the butcher cut spare ribs in half.
-
Step 1: Heat oil in a pan. Add the garlic. Cook until the color turns golden brown. Remove the garlic and set aside.
-
Step 2: Add pork and chicken to the pan. Saute for 5 minutes or until the color turns light brown.
-
Step 3: Add peppercorns, bay leaves, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and water. Bring to a boil and simmer until the meat is tender.
-
Step 4: Add the sugar and stir to combine. Add the vinegar, stir, and return to a boil. Simmer until most of the liquid evaporates.
-
Step 5: Taste and add salt or a bit more soy sauce if necessary. Add the fried garlic, stir, and cook for 2 more minutes.
