Humba Braised Pork Belly

I have not tried this. It is an ethnic philippines recipe posted for a request.

Parboil whole pork belly in about a liter of water for 10 minutes , then cut into 5 equal portions.

Reserve broth.

With a sharp knife , carefully score skin side of each portion making criss-cross slits , approximately 1 cm apart and 0.

5 cm deep , then place in a bowl with all the remaining ingredients and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

The next morning , bring the reserved broth to boil , add pork with remaining ingredients , and cook for 1 1 / 2 hours , until meat is tender.
