GF Red Pork - Ingredients

Method

GF Red Pork - Method

  1. 1

    Season the pork with 0.5 tsp salt and let rest 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

  2. 2

    Heat the neutral oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. In batches, sear the pork belly pieces until browned on all sides, about 6–8 minutes per batch. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same pot, add minced garlic and ginger. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in brown sugar and cook for 1 minute until the sugar begins to caramelize.

  4. 4

    Return the pork to the pot. Pour in gluten-free tamari, Shaoxing wine, and water. Add star anise and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and braise gently for 40–50 minutes, until the pork is tender and the sauce is glossy.

  5. 5

    Make a cornstarch slurry by mixing 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Stir the slurry into the pot and simmer 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Remove star anise and cinnamon stick.

  6. 6

    Taste and adjust salt if needed. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving and serve hot with steamed rice.
