1 teaspoon fresh red chili or sambal oelek* (hot red pepper paste)
1/2 cup Kecap Manis* (Indonesian sweet soy sauce)
1 1/2 cup coconut milk
DIRECTIONS
Cut the pork into 11/2 inch cubes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok until very hot and fry the pork until evenly colored; do not overcrowd the pan or the pork will begin to stew instead of browning. Transfer to a heavy saucepan or baking dish.
Bring to the boil, then simmer gently over low heat for about 1 1/2 hours, until the meat is completely tender and the sauce is a bit reduced. Skim the fat from the surface before serving.
