Songkran Fa-A-Loon's tips

When browning the pork, briefly increase the heat to help it develop a nice colour. Once browned, lower the heat to medium or low to keep the meat tender and juicy. Since the dish relies on its flavourful sauce, you can add a splash of water if it gets too thick.

Hubs and kiddo loved it. I thought it was bland.

Super yum, and the pork belly came out super tender which was so divine. Will make again but would potentially add some chilli oil to it for a bit of heat beyond the black pepper kick!

Never cooked adobo before but the flavours were amazing!! My spuds were very chunky so needed longer to cook than the 20 mins but was a delicious dish 😊

My first time making pork adobo and it was delicious! I’m used to the skin of pork being crispy for a roast, so I was worried it would be tough, but it was completely perfect. Definitely going to make this again. It also reheated well for leftovers.

This dish surprised me . Never had it before . Very tasty and easy to prepare . Just the thing for a cold winters night . Could possibly thicken sauce a little .

Really enjoyed cooking pork belly for the first time at home! The sauce was absolutely delicious with lovely hits of pepper and I am excited to cook again with different protein. Used sesame oil and apple cider vinegar as ingredient swaps since that’s what I had on hand. My potato needed longer than 20 minutes to soften and I ended up separating the meat and potato for a bit to ensure the pork didn’t overcook. Next time I’d probably add some carrot too and add the veg a bit sooner to find the right cooking time for my stove/pan. Also in retrospect I should have followed the tips more carefully regarding browning the pork for step 3, however the meat was still lovely and tender. Overall a beautiful saucy dish and great intro to pork belly.
