Ingredients

1 kg Pork Belly
1 tbsp Salt
to taste
1 pc Onion
large, or 2
3 tbsp Granulated sugar
0.5 kg Carrot
100 g All-purpose flour
for roux
1 tbsp Ground black pepper
to taste
1 tbsp Cardamom

Instructions

Trim and slice the pork belly into 2cm thick slices, tenderize, season with salt, pepper, ground cumin, and sweet paprika, drizzle with oil, and rub the seasoning into the meat. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least two days, then slightly baste and roast in the oven until tender. This prepared meat tastes absolutely delicious and is wonderfully tender.

Braised carrots

In butter, sauté finely chopped onions until translucent, sprinkle with about 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, let it caramelize, add sliced carrots, 1 teaspoon of curry powder, a bit of cumin, and enough water to submerge the carrots. Simmer covered until partially tender, then uncover, let some water evaporate, thicken with a prepared roux, season with soy sauce and ground pepper.
