Step 1

Cut Pork Belly (2 lb) into 2-inch wide strips. Make deep cuts into the pork skin and belly, but don't cut all the way through.

Step 2

Place pork in a bowl of water just to cover the pork. Salt (to taste) water heavily and soak 1-2 hours.

Step 3

Place pork in new boiling water just to cover pork. Cook until all water is absorbed. Oil should be left behind.

Step 4

Fry pork in its own oil, if enough oil has not been left in pan then add more. Season with Salt (to taste) or any Dry Mixed Spice (to taste) you want. Then flip and fry other side.

Step 5

Cool a bit and serve.
