Gather your ingredients
To make Adam Liaw’s red braised pork, you will need pork belly, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, sugar, garlic, ginger, and star anise.
Marinate the pork
Marinate the pork belly in a mixture of soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sugar for at least an hour to infuse it with flavor.
Sear the pork
Sear the marinated pork belly in a hot pan to caramelize the exterior and lock in the juices.
Add aromatics
Add garlic, ginger, and star anise to the pan to enhance the flavor of the dish.
Braise the pork
Add water to the pan and simmer the pork belly until it is tender and flavorful, allowing the sauce to thicken.
Serve and enjoy
Once the pork is cooked to perfection, serve it with steamed rice and enjoy the savory and aromatic flavors of Adam Liaw’s red braised pork.
