Print Recipe
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 pounds pounds of Bostton Butt pork cut slice in chunks
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 6 cloves garlic crushed and peeled
  • 1 thumb-size ginger peeled and chopped finely
  • a handful of whole peppercorns (or 1 tsp of regular black pepper)
  • 3 dried bay leaves
  • 1 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 3 medium potatoes peeled and quartered
  • 1 can coconut milk

Method
 

  1. Heat up oil in a pot. Brown the pork chunks for about 3-5 minutes. Add water, soy sauce, vinegar, peppercorns(or black pepper), garlic, and ginger. Sir in the coconut milk then add the dried bay leaves. Cover and simmer in medium heat.
  2. Stir occasionally and to check how tender the pork chunks are. Once the sauce has reduced (there should be about less than a half left), add the potatoes. Stir and cover the pot again. Lower the heat and let the potatoes cook until fork-tender. Only open it once to stir. Add water if necessary.
