Braised Pork Belly & Sausage

I’ve been making a lot of slow cooked meals during this cold season. If you start this after lunch, you might be able to eat it by dinner time. There are a lot of variations on this dish but I used some things that I had on hand.

I’ve been making a lot of slow cooked meals during this cold season. If you start this after lunch, you might be able to eat it by dinner time. There are a lot of variations on this dish but I used some things that I had on hand.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Boil 8 eggs and set aside. Chop onions and peel garlic (Leave Whole). Put some oil in a hot pot and start sautéing until translucent. Season the veggies with a bit of salt and black pepper. Add sausage and star anise.
- 2
Prepare 1.5 liters of stock and add it to the sausage and vegetable mixture. Add in fish and soy sauces. Bring to a boil and simmer (covered) for about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- 3
By now, the sausage will have really started to flavor the broth. You can start preparing your pork belly.
- 4
Slice the pork belly in half lengthwise and then dice into large cubes. Add into pot. Stir.
- 5
Add in coconut milk and hot chili. Stir and continue simmering for an hour. If you want to speed things up, you can take the lid off to allow it to reduce. I chose to leave the lid on to let the sausage and pork belly become super tender.
- 6
Add in peeled boiled eggs. If at any point, you feel the liquid level is decreasing too much, add a touch of water to keep everything happy. Continue simmering uncovered while stirring occasionally.
- 7
Put sugar in a frying pan on medium heat along with molasses. Stir constantly until it caramelizes. Add to Pot. Simmer uncovered.
- 8
About an hour after adding that sugar and simmering uncovered, you’ll have something like this. By now, everything has been technically “done” hours ago. But by simmering slowly, the flavors are intensifying. I stopped here.
- 9
I ladled a bit over some rice and had some pickled celery with it. Took an eternity, but it was well worth it.

Braised Pork & Sauerkraut Braised Pork & Sauerkraut
An easy, slow-cooked meal. Adding the sauerkraut to the pork provides a necessary braising liquid. The addition of the pear (or an apple) gives it a slight touch of sweetness. It’s German comfort food at its best. Rick M -

It takes a while to make, but you just have to keep it on the heat, so you can make this while cooking other dishes. It is a miraculous simmered pork belly, which will soon be gone in no time.The meat will shrink while simmering, so it would be better to cut the meat slightly big.

Simmered Pork Belly and Burdock Root Simmered Pork Belly and Burdock Root
I had a lot of fat burdock roots, so I tried cutting them up into chunky pieces and simmering them. Burdock root that's been simmered for more than 40 minutes is tender and delicious. This dish is great to eat with rice.Happo-jiru is a very popular all purpose soy sauce in Aomori prefecture.The burdock root is a lot tastier if you cut it into chunky pieces rather than slicing it thinly! Simmer well with a lid on until the burdock root is tender. Let the umami-rich sauce penetrate all the ingredients!This is also delicious with maitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, grilled tofu or sweet or regular potatoes! For 5 servings.
