Instructions:
1. Marinate: In a bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic powder, and pepper. Add pork belly and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
2. Fry: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork belly and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides. This will take about 10-15 minutes, flipping occasionally.
3. Finish: Remove the pork belly from the skillet and set aside. Add sesame seeds to the skillet and toast lightly for about 30 seconds, stirring frequently. Return the pork belly to the skillet, toss to coat with sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
Tips and Variations:
– For extra crispy skin, pat the pork belly dry with paper towels before frying.
– You can adjust the amount of honey to your liking. If you prefer a sweeter dish, add more honey.
– Feel free to add other spices to the marinade, such as chili flakes or five-spice powder.
– Serve with steamed rice and your favorite vegetables.
