The jasmine rice is the perfect accompaniment to soak up all that deliciousness. Charred green beans add a nice smoky flavour to the dish. Sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds.

GOLD & WHITE
Place the rinsed rice and the corn in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
SO SEEDY
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
BEAN THERE
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the trimmed green beans and fry until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, season, and cover.
PORK BELLY
Return the pan to medium-high heat. Pat the pork belly chunks dry with paper towel and lightly season. When the pan is hot, sear the pork chunks until browned and cooked through (the pork will render its own fat), 3-5 minutes per side. Remove from the heat, drain any excess oil, and toss through the sticky sauce and ½ the toasted sesame seeds.
ALL DONE!
Dish up a bowl of loaded jasmine rice. Top with the charred green beans and the sticky pork belly. Spoon over any remaining sauce from the pan. Sprinkle over the remaining sesame seeds. Yummy, Chef!
