Ingredients
- Cubed pork shoulder weighing 4 pounds
- 1 tsp of salt and ground black pepper each
- ¼ cup of olive oil
- Minced garlic cloves
- Brown sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce in quantities of 2 tbsp each
- 1 tsp of Chinese five-spice powder
Step 1
Begin by generously seasoning the pork with a sprinkle of salt and pepper to enhance its flavors. In a generously sized pot, warm up some olive oil over medium heat. Allow the pork and garlic to sizzle in the fragrant oil until the pork transforms into a beautiful, golden brown hue, which usually takes around 7 to 10 minutes.
Step 2
Next, introduce a delightful medley of brown sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, and five-spice powder to the pork. Lower the heat to a gentle medium-low setting and let the mixture simmer, infusing the meat with rich flavors. Remember to stir the concoction now and then while it tenderizes, gradually reaching that perfect stage where the pork effortlessly falls apart with just a gentle prod from a fork. This slow cooking process typically takes about 2 hours, but the result is well worth the wait.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep the marinated pork in an airtight container in the refrigerator to lock in all the delicious flavors of the five-spice blend.
- 2. Store any leftover pork in portion-sized containers for easy access when you're craving a quick and tasty meal.
