Easy-peasy Pork Rashers

Really yummy, tender and awesome with ingredients you already have! (and unlike the title, there are no peas in this, I promise.) 

What was used:
500g of Pork Rashers (also known as pork belly slices)
3 cloves of garlic
2 Tbsp Sugar
2 Tsp 5 Spice Powder
5 Tbsp Kecap Manis (Sweet Soy Sauce)
1/2 Tsp Ground Pepper
(if you want it a little spicy, add some chilli!)
- Preheat Oven to 180 Degrees.


a) Mix all the dry ingredients together (including the garlic). I used a hand held dicer but I guess you can use a food processor or anything else that chops the garlic to little pieces and mixes everything together.
b) Add in the Kecap Manis to the mix. I just stirred it all together with a spoon and made sure it was evenly mixed.
c) Cut the Pork Rashers into about 4cm pieces (or whichever size you like). I find this size the easiest to eat with rice!
d) Mix the sauce and pork in a bowl, ensure its well covered!
e) Lay on an oven try (deeper is better as there's sauce!), cover with foil and place into preheated oven for 45mins. At this point when you take it out it should be sitting in its own juices and not be burnt at all as its been covered.
f) Flip all your pieces and remove the foil lid. Back into the oven for 15 mins and that should change the colour and texture of the meat as now its direct heat onto the meat.

Smell it!
