Using flat cola to tenderize and sweeten well-charred pork belly, then simmering with soy sauce and green chili for a rich, savory-sweet flavor profile.
Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Use whole garlic roasted in oil instead of minced to keep the braising sauce clean and clear.
- Maintain high heat and cook uncovered throughout to rapidly evaporate moisture, allowing the sauce to cling tightly to the meat.
- Always use regular cola—not zero-sugar—to ensure proper tenderness and rich color, thanks to its sugar and caramel content.
- Cutting the ends of green chilies allows the savory-sweet marinade to seep inside during cooking.
Recommended for
- Those who want to turn leftover flat cola into a special, delicious dish.
- People seeking a satisfyingly addictive sweet-savory rib-like taste using just cola and soy sauce, without complicated measurements.
- Fans of crunchy, spicy green chilies and generous whole garlic chunks in a non-greasy braised pork dish.
