Ingredients

• 1 kg pork belly, cut into 2-inch cubes

• 1 onion, peeled and sliced thinly

• 1 head garlic, peeled and minced

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine pork, onions, garlic, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for about 30 minutes.

2. In a wide, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add meat mixture and cook, turning occasionally, until pork is lightly browned.

3. Add vinegar and allow to boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes.
