Instructions

  1. Peel the santol and place in a bowl with water. Once all are peeled, cut each in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. You can eat the seed as they will not be used for the recipe. Put back the seeded pieces to the bowl of water until all are done.
  2. In a shallow pan, add the pork belly and pour water over it. Turn heat on to medium and let it simmer until fat is rendered and the pork has shrunk and turned crispy and golden brown. You may add a bit of oil if needed.
  3. Meanwhile, grate the santol flesh using a coarse grater or use a food processor or chop it finely with a knife. Place the grated flesh over a cheese cloth and squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Discard the liquid and set the flesh aside.
  4. Once pork is cooked to golden, add the onions and cook for some seconds until translucent followed by the garlic and cook until soft and aromatic.
  5. Add the shrimp paste and brown sugar and mix. Cook for 3-5 minutes until shrimp paste is cooked and sugar has melted.
  6. Add the shredded santol, breaking it loose with your hand while adding to the pan. Toss in the green long chilis and labuyo.
  7. Pour in coconut milk and season with salt and pepper as needed. Let it simmer until liquid is fully absorbed.
  8. Pour in the coconut cream and lower heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring from time to time, until the coconut cream almost turns to oil.
  9. Add soy sauce, if using. Check again if it needs more salt and pepper.
  10. Turn off the heat and transfer to a serving dish and enjoy with steaming hot rice. Alternatively, pack them in glass jars for storage or gifting.
