I've enjoyed a fair few dishes from the Philippines - Sinigang, Pancit Canton, Tinola, Adobo and a few more, I want to feature more of them on here since many of you lovelies are based in Asia. And, if you're not based in Asia you can also cook up a treat with these really warming, belly-hugging dishes.
Ingredients
▶ 500g Pork Belly
▶ 2 litres Water
▶ 1 tbsp Olive oil
▶ 250g Green beans
▶ Pack of Broccoli
Kare-Kare Sauce
▶ 2 cups Pork Broth (from cooking the pork belly)
▶ 60g sliced Onions
▶ 1 tbsp crushed garlic
▶ 1 tbsp Olive oil
▶ 1/4 cup Roasted peanuts - chopped
▶ 3 large tbsp Peanut Butter
▶ 1/2 tbsp Shrimp paste
▶ Salt & Pepper
▶ Cornflower (optional)
How to Cook
▼ In a large pot, boil the pork belly in the water, season with salt and pepper. Set aside the pork broth.
▼ Saute onion in the oil and add the garlic and chopped peanuts.
▼ Add the reserved pork broth, peanut butter and shrimp paste to the pot and simmer for around ten minutes.
▼ If you wish your sauce to be thicker, add a little cornflour until it thickens, season the sauce well.
▼ In a steamer (Or in the microwave if you don't have one) add the broccoli. Cook until tender. If using a microwave, add the broccoli to some water in a bowl and cook until soft.
▼ In a new pot, saute garlic and onion in some oil. Once browned, add in the cooked pork belly.
▼ Crisp the pork belly fat (optional)
▼ Mix in the sauce and simmer for approx. 10mins.
▼ Serve with rice and enjoy!
That wraps up my recipe. Have you ever tried Kare-Kare? if so, how does your recipe differ from mine? I'd love to hear your thoughts
