Instructions

Cut thinly sliced pork belly into 1-inch chunks. In a bowl, combine dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, and five spice powder. Add the pork belly, toss well, and marinate for 15 minutes.
Heat a pan with a little oil and place the pork belly pieces in. Cook for 3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes. Mix everything around and cook for an additional 2 minutes until sticky and caramelized. Remove from heat.
Serve the pork belly over a fresh bowl of rice. Optionally garnish with scallions and an egg yolk, or use a blowtorch to caramelize the pork further.
