Vietnamese Coconut Braised Pork Belly is a comforting dish where chunks of pork belly are slowly simmered in coconut milk with caramelised onions and ginger. The slow braising allows the pork to become tender while the coconut milk reduces into a rich, savoury sauce balanced with fish sauce, chilli and palm sugar. Often served with steamed rice, this simple dish highlights the deep flavour that can come from just a few key ingredients.
Sweet & Sticky Chinese Hoisin Cola Ribs are a rich, caramelised party favourite inspired by classic Cantonese hoisin ribs, with a clever twist of Coca Cola for extra glaze and depth.
