Instructions

  1. Add to the Instant pot all the ingredients. Top with 2½ cups water and stir a little.
  2. Set the Instant pot to high pressure for 25 minutes.
  3. Release the pressure and then remove the lid. Check the pork is tender. If not, return for 5 minute intervals until done.

To cook on the stove top

  1. Add all ingredients to a pan with the same amount of water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid and simmer gently for 90 minutes, until the pork is tender.
  2. That's it! Serve sprinkled with more spring onion and lots of fluffy rice.
