Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper, black only
  • ½ tablespoon salt, iodized or rock only
  • ½ cup minced garlic
  • 1 kilo pork belly or (2 ½ kilos sliced boneless pork belly)
  • cooking oil

Directions

1

In a small bowl, combine water, vinegar, pepper, salt, and garlic. Stir until salt is completely dissolved. Set aside.

2

Arrange pork slices lengthwise in a large plastic storage container and pour the vinegar marinade over them. Leave in the refrigerator for a couple of hours or overnight.

3

When ready to cook, drain marinade and place pork strips in a colander or sieve to let the rest of the marinade drip off. Pat dry with paper towels to remove more excess liquid.

4

Heat oil in a large frying pan. Fry pork strips until golden brown and crunchy at the edges.

5

Blot the fried pork strips with paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve while hot.
