Caramel pork belly - Hands on Kitchen
This is a super easy dish to make that's very good!
Start off by trimming the skin/fat off the pork belly, NOTE (some people prefer to leave it on) slick the pork belly thin and place in a pot, add the crushed up or cut up peppers then go down the list with the sweet sauce, fish sauce, and sugar, once the pork is mostly cooked, add the 1/4 cup of water and cook till the water is reduced so you're left with a thick sauce like fluid. Plate the pork and sprinkle the red onions on top and some fresh ground pepper, serve with the cucumbers and a side dish of rice.
do note, this dish uses a lot of fish sauce, be warned, when cooking, the food will smell pretty darn bad, but I assure you, once its done it wont smell bad and it will taste great.
