Step 1

Cut the pork belly into finger sized pieces

Step 2

Place a medium sized pot on the stove at high heat and add the chicken stock and the remaining ingredients and give it a good swirl

Step 3

Once boiling add the pork belly

Step 4

Lower the heat and cover with lid, allow to simmer for about 2 hours

Step 5

After 2 hours, strain and chop the pork into bite sized chunks

Step 6

Heat up olive oil in a medium sized frying pan and add the pork

Step 7

Allow pork to fry up, it will look floppy and flubbery at first but be patient.

Step 8

Keep turning the pork so it becomes browned on all sides

Step 9

It may start to crackle and pop, I used this splatter screen to avoid pork belly flying all over the stove

Step 10

Once browned add the soy or tamari or coconut aminos and the remaining ingredients.

Step 11

Continue to fry, you may need to lower the temp occasionally if its crackling too much but increase it again to get the pork nice an crispy.

Step 12

I had to lower the temp and then increase several times in order to get the pork belly just right

Step 13

Once its dark, sticky and a little bit crispy it's good to go!
