Torresmo Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pork

   Cut the pork belly into 1-inch cubes. In a large bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub the spice mix all over the pork cubes.

2. 2

   Boil the Pork

   In a large pot, combine the pork, bay leaves, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 1 hour or until the pork is tender.

3. 3

   Drain and Dry

   Remove the pork from the pot and drain well. Place the pork cubes on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. Allow them to cool slightly.

4. 4

   Fry the Pork

   In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork cubes in batches and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

5. 5

   Drain Again

   Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried pork from the pan and drain on paper towels.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the Torresmo hot as a snack or appetizer. Enjoy!
