  • 3 pounds pork shoulder, sliced thinly
  • ½ cups calamansi juice

  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • ½ cup Nestle All-Purpose Cream
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a pot, combine pork shoulder, calamansi juice, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, and pepper. Stir to distribute. Cover with the lid and bring to a boil. Occasionally skim the scum that floats on top.

Notes

  • Slice the pork across the grain for a more tender chew.
  • When the cream is added, do not bring it to a boil; cook on a gentle heat, as drastic temperature changes can make the sauce curdle or separate.
