Honey/Chinese Spiced Pork Skewers

Inspired by a recent visit to SE Asia, this recipe uses street-food cooking and Chinese spices. Marinated thin slices of pork belly are skewered and simply grilled or barbequed. Easy-peasy, and a good breakfast idea too.

Ingredients:

1 kg pork belly, sliced into thin pieces

For the marinade:
2 tbsps honey
1 tbsp vinegar
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp ground cloves
1 tbsp fresh grated ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp nutmeg

1. Mix the marinade and marinate the pork for at least 2 hours.
2. Soak the bamboo sticks in water for 30 minutes. This stops burning.
3. Skewer the meat. 
4. Grill on medium for about 5 minutes each side, basting with residual marinade with a little oil.
5. Devour. :)
