  1. SOY RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, toss through the soy sauce (to taste), and cover.

  2. GOLDEN CASHEWS

    Place the chopped cashews in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. PERFECT PORK

    Return the pan to medium-high heat. Pat the pork belly pieces dry with paper towel. When hot, add the pork pieces (the pork will render its own fat) and fry until crispy and cooked through, 4-8 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

  4. SWEET & SOUR

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the onion slices until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Mix through the drained pineapple pieces, the sweet ’n sour sauce, and 20ml of a sweetener. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove from the heat. Stir through the pork and the chopped pepper until fully coated. Season.

  5. SATISFYING SUPPER

    Serve up the soy-infused rice and smother in the sweet ’n sour pork. Scatter over the toasted cashews and the chopped coriander. Simply gorgeous, Chef!
