Steps to make Five Spice Pan Fried Pork Belly:
- Prep: a few hours or overnight before cooking. - - Marinate pork belly slabs in soy sauce (enough to change meat color once absorbed) and calamansi (squeeze 1 per slab). - - Set aside in chiller.
- Take out chilled marinade of pork. - - Cut a few slits on the fat side to help it remain flat on pan when frying. - - Heat a non-stick pan with cooking oil. Don't put a lot, only 2-3 tbsp, as it's own oil will come out. - - I used a pan big enough to fit all three.
- Once hot enough (not too much that it will spit oil), place all 3 pork belly in pan and cover in low-medium heat. - - Let it defrost in pan, let water come out. Cover 7-10 minutes. - - You'll see pork thawed, cooking in its juices and fat still not rendered. This will help tenderize the pork. - - Flip it on the other side, and simmer in juices for another 6-7 minutes, covered
- (Side 1) uncover, squeeze lemon on each and sprinkle a pinch of rock salt on each pork and fat area. Sprinkle a generous amount of five spice powder and ground black pepper. - - Get a back of the spoon and use to pat and spread salt & spices on belly. Cover 1 minute. - - Turn bellies on other side (side 2). Increase heat to medium. Add the same to this belly sides- remaining lemon juice, pepper, salt, five spice and spread with back of spoon, then cover. - - Do not flip yet. Let fat render on side 1.
- Let fat render on side 1 in pan in medium heat. You will hear popping sounds. Peek after a few minutes, you'll smell the spices. - - See if side 1 on pan has darkened in color before flipping on side 2.
- Reduce heat, careful of oil spitting when flipping pork belly to other side. - - Once flipped on side 2, increase heat to medium and cover. Listen for popping sounds, this means the fat is rendering. - - After a few minutes, peek carefully, if darkened in color, remove from heat and let oil drop on a rack before serving. - - Serve with rice, veggies or potatoes. Enjoy.
