Instructions
- In a wide pan or skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
- Add pork and cook until lightly browned.
- Add tomatoes and cook, mashing with the back of the spoon, until softened.
- Add shrimp paste and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add vinegar and allow to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add coconut milk, water, chili peppers, and sugar.
- Lower heat, cover, and simmer until it begins to render fat and pork is fork-tender.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
Notes
- Freeze the pork belly until partially firm to make slicing easier. Make sure the pieces are in uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
- I use sauteed shrimp paste with a tamer "fishy taste." If using raw bagoong, saute it a few minutes longer until nicely browned.
- The vinegar will help balance the strong flavors of the dish. Once added to the pan, boil it uncovered and without stirring until mostly absorbed to cook off the acidity.
- To ensure a smooth sauce, simmer, and do NOT allow the coconut milk to a rolling boil lest it curdles and separates.
