IZOBEL`S BRAISED PORK BELLY ( HUMBA )
Braised Pork belly or HUMBA ( as filipinos call it ) is one of my favorite filipino comfort food. Most recipes would normally use 1 cup of water instead of pineapple juice. But mommy`s version is perfect the way it is. The blend of taste is just what makes it the best !!!

[email protected]I've made this dish several times now and it always turns out great. The key is to use good quality pork belly and to braise it for long enough. I usually cook it for at least 3 hours, but sometimes even longer.

[email protected]This humba recipe is a keeper! The pork belly was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it with rice and a side of vegetables, and it was a hit with my family.
