The pork is marinated, then slowly cooked in the same sauce, and finally fried with garlic for a deep, rich flavor.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  2-5 hrs

ingredients

1 pound pork loin, cut into chunks
1 head garlic, crushed in large pieces
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable or corn oil

directions

Combine the pork, garlic, soy sauce, pepper, and vinegar in a non-reactive bowl. Mix well then cover the bowl and refrigerate the pork for 2 hours.

Place the pork and marinade ingredients in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let the pork cook for 30 minutes or until tender.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the garlic from the saucepan with the pork and place in the hot oil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.

Remove the pork from the saucepan with a slotted spoon and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until browned.

Drain off the fat from the skillet. Add the liquid from the saucepan to the skillet and simmer for 10 minutes.

    Is "a head of garlic" correct? Seems like a lot! I want to try this recipe, but want to get it right.

    • Yes, you're using an entire head. Because it's left in large pieces it's not as potent as using more finely crushed garlic. And it's removed from the final dish.
