Method

  1. Rub the garlic paste, ginger paste and five-spice powder into the pork belly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

  2. Heat the oven to 140°C.

  3. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the pork belly in batches, skin side down, for 2 minutes. Arrange the pork in an ovenproof casserole, skin side up.

  4. Mix the soy sauces, marinade, honey, salt, pepper and cold water together and pour around the pork. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook in the oven for 2 1/2-3 hours, or until the pork is meltingly tender.

  5. Serve drizzled with the remaining cooking liquid, with steamed rice and bok choy or seasonal greens.
