Instructions
Marinate pork and melt sugar
Mix diced pork with salt, pepper, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste in a bowl. Add sugar to The Upliance jar. The device will heat on low heat for 2 minutes to melt the sugar.
Caramelize the pork
Add the marinated pork to the jar. The Upliance will now cook the pork on low heat for 10 minutes with automatic stirring to coat the meat in the caramelized sugar.
Braise the stew
Add water, carrots, onions, remaining soy sauce, spices, and ginger garlic paste. The device will simmer the stew on low heat for 30 minutes with gentle automatic stirring.
The dish is ready
Once the broth is dark and pork is tender, remove from the jar. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the stew and serve hot with steamed rice.
