Crispy pork belly noodles

This recipe was given to me by Tara (@living_guilt_free) and it was so delicious it would be a shame if I didn't share it!

In the past I had a weird relationship with pork and never ate it due to hearing things about parasites. But since learning that parasites and humans have a  symbiotic relationship and how nutritious pork  is (selenium, B vitamins, potassium), I have learned to love it.

Ingredients:

• Pork belly 1kg
• 1/2 cup broth
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tbsp balsamin vinegar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2cm knob grated ginger
• Grated veggies like carrot, cucumber and steamed veg like boy choy
• Vermicelli noodles

Method

1. Mix broth, soy  sauce, balsamic vinegar sugar and ginger in slow cooker
2. Sprinkle pork belly skin in salt and place in slow cooker without letting the liquid cover it
3. Cook on low for 7 hours
4. Take out and pat dry. Sprinkle more salt on skin and place under grill until it crackles (this can take about 30 or more min)
5. Pour the remaining sauce in saucepan and bring to boil  for 10 minutes to cook down
6. Cook the noodles and prepare the veggies
7. Plate up and pour sauce over everything
