6. Caramel pork

Ingredients:
- 1.5kg pork loin
- 5cs soy sauce
- 1cs allspice (cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger)
- 1cs ginger
- 0.5L chicken stock (available from Meaty)
- 25g sugar
Instructions:
- Cut the pork into bite-sized pieces. Brown for 5 minutes in a heavy-bottomed casserole dish with a little oil. Remove as soon as colored.
- Pour the stock into a bowl and add the four-spice blend, ginger and soy sauce. Mix well and save the stock for later.
- Prepare the caramel with all the sugar and water in a saucepan. As soon as the caramel has browned, pour in the stock all at once (watch out for splashes). The caramel will harden rapidly, so keep stirring with a wooden spoon to dilute it little by little in the stock.
- As soon as the caramel has dissolved in the stock, plunge in the meat. The stock should cover the meat. Bring to the boil over high heat, stirring the meat to prevent it from sticking. When all the water has evaporated, giving way to a caramel syrup, the dish is ready.
