Slow Cooker Sticky Pork Belly

Step 01

Put the belly strips into the slow cooker pot, cover and cook on high for 3-3½ hours until tender but still holding their shape, with no added liquid.

Step 02

Meanwhile mix the garlic, ginger, ketchup, soy sauce, honey, five-spice and chilli flakes in a bowl until combined.

Step 03

Lift the pork out onto a plate and pour away the cooking juices from the pot.

Step 04

Return the pork to the pot, pour over the sauce and turn to coat. Cover and cook on high for a further 1½ hours until the sauce is thickened and glossy and the pork falls apart when prodded with a fork.

Step 05

Sprinkle with spring onions and toasted sesame seeds and serve with rice and stir-fried pak choi or in bread rolls with fresh mint, coriander and chilli.
