Deep Fry Pork Recipe

In a large pot, combine the pork belly, salt, peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, onion, and enough water to fully cover the pork belly.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until the pork belly is tender.
Remove the pork belly from the pot and let it cool completely. Pat it dry with paper towels.
Score the skin of the pork belly in a criss-cross pattern or slice the pork belly (optional, based on preference). This will help achieve a crispy texture during frying.

2. First Fry
Heat oil in a large wok or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully lower the pork belly into the hot oil and fry for 10-15 minutes, or until the skin starts to turn golden brown.
Remove the pork belly from the oil and let it drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

3. Second Fry
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C).
Fry the pork belly again for 5-7 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
Remove the pork belly from the oil and let it drain on paper towels.

4. Serve
Slice the pork belly into serving pieces and serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, vinegar, or sweet chili sauce.
