Islander Pork Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the molasses, soy sauce, chili sauce, coriander, cumin, ginger and garlic salt in a plastic zipper bag; add the pork, rubbing the spices and sauces into the meat, and marinate in the refrigerator overnight or up to 1-1/2 days.
• Heat oil and saute the pork slowly (this may take a couple of batches) until nicely browned.
• Remove pork and set aside, then saute onion in the pan drippings.
• Return pork to the pan, add the coconut milk and slowly simmer, covered, until pork is fully cooked and tender with no trace of pink; the longer the better for more flavor (around an hour).
