Tocino Recipe



Tocino

Ingredients:


  •   1 kg pork (preferably well marbled with fat like the shoulder part)
  •   1 Tbsp fine salt
  •   5 Tbsp granulated sugar

Instructions:

  1. Slice the meat into about 1/4-inch thick and into serving sizes.
  2. Mix salt and sugar well in a bowl.
  3. Add the pork and mix in, making sure that it is well coated.
  4. Put in a covered glass container and store in the fridge for about 5 days.
To cook:

  1. Put tocino in a non-stick pan and add just enough water to cover it.
  2. Bring to boil then bring heat down and simmer for about 30 minutes or until tender. Add hot water a little at a time if it is drying up too much.
  3. When the water has nearly evaporated (this should be near the end of 30 minutes), drizzle some oil on it, turn heat to very low and let it fry gently. Stir occasionally and let the meat scrape the sticky residue in the pan. Cook until golden brown.
