I believe everybody on Keto should try this sumptuous food.

Ask your filipino friend to make you one. If you dont have a filipino friend, find one now! :joy:

  • 1 slab 5 lbs. pork belly bones removed

I’m fasting today and you’re killing me! That sounds so-o-o-o-o good!!!

Only problem is that I’ve never in my life seen a five pound slab of pork belly for sale.

I should probably try here:

I’ve only gone in there a couple of times. Their meat department is a bit more adventurous than the white-bread supermarkets.

I sent you a direct message. Hope it helps :+1:t3:

How do you apply the lemongrass and onions? On top, under, both?

This is very good advice.
