Instructions
-
1Dry-caramelize sugar in a pot over medium heat until dark golden brown — be careful, it burns quickly.
-
2Add pork belly cubes to the hot caramel, stir immediately — they should be coated all over with caramel.
-
3Stir in garlic and shallots. Add fish sauce and black pepper.
-
4Pour in coconut water — it dissolves the caramel and gives the dish its characteristic sweet depth.
-
5Bring to a boil, reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
-
6Add peeled hard-boiled eggs. Braise for another 15 minutes until the eggs have taken on the caramel color.
-
7Taste and adjust. Stir cold cannabis coconut oil into the finished dish. Serve with rice and fresh herbs.
Pro Tips
- Coconut water, not coconut milk — coconut water is clear and gives a lighter sweetness.
- Don't let the caramel get too light — the bitterness of a dark caramel is important for complexity.
- Stir in cannabis coconut oil after cooking — the pork belly fat greatly improves absorption.
- Thịt Kho Tàu is a classic Tết dish (Vietnamese New Year) — it symbolizes prosperity.
