{{RecipeIngredients
| 500g [[Pork belly|pork belly]] - as I live in [[:Category:Turkish recipes|Turkey]] I get Bulgarian "bakon"
| 2 tablespoons [[Sugar|sugar]] - I like [[Brown sugar|brown sugar]] for more flavour
| 1 tablespoon [[Fish sauce|fish sauce]]
| 1 tablespoon [[Soy sauce|soy sauce]]
| [[Black pepper|black pepper]] - fresh coarsely [[Ground|ground]]
| water - [[Coconut|coconut]] [[Juice|juice]] is sweeter
| 3 [[Boiled eggs|boiled eggs]]
}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* [[Boil]] the [[Eggs|eggs]], peel and set aside for later.
* Cut the [[Pork belly|pork belly]] into 2cm chunks.
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| First caramelise the [[Sugar|sugar]]: put a couple of tablespoons of sugar in the bottom of a small pot and add a little water. Apply medium low heat and wait until it turns [[Brown|brown]], thick and bubbly.
| Add the chunks of [[Pork belly|pork belly]], a tablespoon each of [[Fish sauce|fish sauce]] and [[Soy sauce|soy sauce]], and a tablespoon of [[Black pepper|black pepper]]. At this point also add some water or [[Coconut|coconut]] water if available. Add just enough liquid to reach the top of the [[Pork|pork]] chunks.
| [[Simmer]] until almost fully cooked and add the [[Boiled eggs|boiled eggs]]. Make sure to stir them so they turn [[Brown|brown]] all over and soak up the [[Sauce|sauce]].
| When the [[Pork|pork]] is cooked and shrunk it's ready!
}}
===Serving suggestions===
Best served with freshly cooked [[Rice|rice]].
===Variations===
I'm sure there are many variations of this recipe. I find this to be the easiest that I can do here in [[:Category:Turkish recipes|Turkey]] surrounded by non [[Pork|pork]] eaters who couldn't point to Vietnam on a map.
