Asian braised and pressed pork belly

Pork belly, braised and slow cooked.  Cooled then pressed  for 48 hours.  Finally, cooked skin side down.  This is not a crackling dish (highly overrated in my opinion) this is a pork dish identifying the essence of delicious unctuous meat with a fully rendered, sticky skin.  Sublime. 

The pork was  braised in a mix of South East Asian spices, served with Asian steamed buns (home made, they're fun),  a punchy salad of ginger and kaffir lime leaf , spinach and lime along with freshly grilled prawns. 


Ummmm???…yummmm!!!
