Painted Wolf’s Nigiri-Style Pork Belly
with a cucumber salad & peanut butter dressing
Stop putting peanut butter in the sandwich category, Chef, because this nutty condiment can be transformed into a delicious dressing. Poured over a cucumber, edamame bean salad, this creamy & zesty liquid adds a lipsmacking creamy balance for the umami-rich sesame-soy coated pork belly. Served on a bed of sushi rice, this is the perfect meal to impress your loved ones or guests, especially when paired with the recommended Painted Wolf wine.

SUSHI RICE
Rinse the rice until the water runs mostly clear. Place the rice in a pot with 150ml [300ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water, cover with a lid, and let it soak for 10-15 minutes. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low, cover, and cook until the water has been absorbed, 10-12 minutes. Remove from the heat and steam for 5-8 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
TOAST
Place the Peanuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan.
Pork BELLY
Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add the Pork chunks and sear until browned and cooked through (the pork will render its own fat), 6-8 minutes (shifting as they colour).
SAUCE MOMENT
Place a clean pan over medium heat with the sesame-soy sauce, simmer until warmed through, 30-60 seconds and mix in the Pork belly until coated. Remove from the heat.
SALAD & SOME PREP
In a salad bowl, combine the Cucumber, spring onion (to taste), edamame beans, green leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and season. In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter and lemon juice (to taste). Loosen with warm water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
FINE DINING
