Ingredients

Method
  • 1 kg pork belly, skin removed
  • 1 x 3 cm piece ginger, roughly chopped
  • 1⁄2 onion, roughly chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 2 T Woolworths
  • 2 T honey
  • 4 T brown sugar
  • 4 T soya sauce
  • 1⁄2 cup water

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the pork in a roasting dish with the ginger, onion

2. In a bowl, mix the miso, honey, sugar, soya sauce and water until the miso paste has dissolved, then pour over the pork.

3. Cover the pork tightly with foil, place in the oven to cook for 3 hours, turning in the sauce halfway through.

4. Once cooked, remove the aromatics from the sauce, then shred the pork in the sauce.
