Making the Broth
1. Prepare the Broth
In a large pot, add the pork bones and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Skim off any scum that rises to the surface.
2. Add Aromatics
Add sliced ginger, crushed garlic, and chopped green onions to the pot. Simmer for about 6 hours, adding water as needed to keep the level consistent.
3. Strain the Broth
Once the broth is rich and flavorful, strain it through a fine mesh sieve, discarding the solids. Return the liquid to the pot.
4. Season the Broth
Stir in soy sauce and mirin. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Making the Chili
5. Cook the Pork
In a separate skillet, cook ground pork over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
6. Combine Ingredients
In the pot with the broth, add the cooked pork, crushed tomatoes, chili paste, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
7. Simmer the Chili
Allow the chili to simmer on low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
8. Finish with Lime
Stir in lime juice right before serving.
