Keto Sinigang with Pork Belly

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Pork Belly
• 8 cups Water
• 2 packets Tamarind Soup Base
• 1 cup Radishes
• 1 cup Green Beans
• 2 cups Spinach
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 medium Tomatoes
• 2 tbsp Fish Sauce

Instructions

1. 1Place the 1.5 lbs of pork belly, the medium onion cut into quarters, and the 2 medium tomatoes cut into quarters into a large heavy-bottomed pot.
2. 2Add the 8 cups of water to the pot. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, about 212°F (100°C). Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the pork belly is fork-tender.
3. 3Carefully remove the pork belly from the pot and set it aside on a cutting board. Skim any excess fat from the surface of the broth if desired. Return the pot to medium heat, about 350°F (175°C).
4. 4Add the 2 packets of tamarind soup base to the broth and stir until it is completely dissolved. Bring the soup back to a gentle simmer.
5. 5Add the 1 cup of radishes, cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds, and the 1 cup of green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces, to the simmering broth. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
6. 6While the vegetables cook, cut the reserved pork belly into 1-inch cubes. Add the cubed pork belly back into the pot.
7. 7Stir in the 2 cups of spinach and the 2 tbsp of fish sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes more, just until the spinach has wilted. Serve the Keto Sinigang hot.
