Pigging out

Henry landed me today with a big task – work my way through lashings of pork belly pieces.

He asked a friend to stock up for the cafe, but the friend got the order wrong. He manhandles a pig’s worth of meat onto the table.

It’s mine! It’s a tough call, but I think I’m up to the challenge, since pork belly pieces are my favourite Vietnamese meat.

In case motivation wanes, I composed the wee ditty below to help me through the Last Days in Nha Trang.

I have a recipe, such as it is. 1) Re-heat ( boil ) last week’s pork bones, with juice, in the slow cooker / crockpot. 2) Turn down crockpot to ‘warm’. 3) Chuck in some greens / carrots / etc 4) add pork belly slabs 5) Slow-cook 3 – 4 hours 6) pig out.
