NEVER SAY NO TO NOODLES
Bring a pot of salted water to boil for the noodles. Cook the noodles until al dente, 7-8 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water. Toss through the soy sauce (to taste), cover to keep warm, and set aside.
ACT CASHEWAL...
Place the chopped cashews in a deep pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
CRISPY, PERFECT Pork
Return the pan to a 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.
A LIL SWEET & A LIL SOUR
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the Onion slices. Fry until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated Garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Mix through the pineapple pieces, the sweet ’n sour sauce, and 20ml of a sweetener. Allow to come to the boil, then immediately remove from heat. Stir through the pork and chopped pepper until fully coated. Season.
STICKY & SATISFYING SUPPER
