Directions
Place the pork belly, water, salt, bay leaves, and crushed garlic in a pot. Simmer over medium heat for 1-2 hours or until the pork is tender.
Once tender, remove the pork from the pot and set it aside to cool. You can do this step ahead and refrigerate the pork and it will make the skin even more crispy when fried.
Heat a deep pan or wok with cooking oil enough to submerge the pork belly pieces. Deep-fry the pork belly until the skin is super crispy.
Meanwhile, mix together vinegar, soy sauce, onion, garlic, green pepper, salt and pepper to create the dipping sauce.
Cut the crispy pork belly into pieces and serve with the dipping sauce and a side of steamed rice.
