Braised Five-Spice Pork Liempo Recipe

Heat oil in a wok; add sugar. Cook until sugar caramelizes and turns light brown.

Add pork and ginger; turn them in the mixture until well coated.

Add soy sauce, five-spice powder, water, and salt.

Cover the wok and cook gently over low heat for 40 minutes, turning the meat once or twice during braising. Add more water if necessary.

Adjust the seasoning by adding extra soy sauce to taste. Serve with steaming hot rice.
