Ingredients

6 slices pork belly, cut into 3-inch lengths
2 tbsp dark soy sauce
1/3 cup light soy sauce
1/3 cup sweet sherry
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 None whole star anise
1 None cinnamon stick
1 piece (3/4 inch) fresh ginger, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, peeled and bruised
2 lbs fresh rice noodles
1 medium carrot, cut into thin matchsticks
3 oz snow peas, trimmed and thinly sliced lengthwise
1 cup bean sprouts, rinsed
2 None green onions, thinly sliced diagonally

Directions

1

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add pork; boil for 3 mins. Drain pork. Add soy sauces, sherry, sugar, star anise, cinnamon, ginger and garlic to pan; cook and stir on medium heat for 1 min or until combined.
2

Return pork to pan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours or until pork is very tender and sauce is syrupy. (You may need to stir occasionally as sauce thickens.)
3

Meanwhile, soak noodles in boiling water in a medium heatproof bowl for 3 mins. Stir to separate strands. Drain.
4

Place carrot and snow peas in another heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water; let stand for 3 mins. Drain. Toss vegetables with bean sprouts and onion.
5

To serve, place noodles in large shallow serving bowls. Top with pork and drizzle with sauce. Pile vegetables over pork and serve while hot.
