Griot De Porc Fried Pork Food

GRIOT (ISLAND FRIED PORK)

Steps:

• Toss the pork with 1/2 cup of the lime juice and then drain the juices and reserve the pork.
• Quarter the Scotch bonnet and remove the seeds and membranes, preferably while wearing gloves (these chiles are extremely hot). Finely chop one quarter; leave the others whole. Transfer all of the Scotch bonnet to a large Dutch oven or heavy pot with a lid.
• Add the celery, orange juice, lemon juice, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, vinegar, parsley, scallions, garlic, thyme, bouillon, onion, remaining 1 cup lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to a food processor and process until smooth. Pour the mixture into the Dutch oven with the Scotch bonnet. Stir in the cloves. Mix in the pork. Cover the pot and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Remove the pot from the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking. Place the pot over high heat and add 8 cups water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is very tender and the liquid has been reduced by a third, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Remove the meat gently with a slotted spoon and set aside to cool.
• In a large saucepan or deep fryer, heat enough oil to cover the pork to 350 degrees F. Working in batches, pat the pork dry and fry until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
• To serve, drizzle the pork with oil and sprinkle with parsley and thyme leaves. Serve on a bed of rice.

• Add the garlic, scallions, Scotch bonnet peppers, red onions, yellow onions, parsley, green bell peppers, red bell peppers and thyme in a food processor until blended into a paste. Season the meat with the paste and let marinate for 10 minutes.
• In a stock pot, add the meat and 3 cups water. Cover and boil for 35 minutes. Drain all the water.

Steps:

• Quarter the chile and remove the seeds and membranes. Finely chop one quarter; leave the rest in whole pieces. Handle pieces carefully, preferably while wearing gloves; they are extremely hot.
• Transfer quartered and chopped chiles to a large Dutch oven or heavy pot with a lid. Add onion, bell peppers, parsley, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic. Stir in vinegar, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice and Worcestershire sauce. Mix in pork. Cover pot and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, remove from refrigerator at least 1 hour and no more than 3 hours before cooking. Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place pot over high heat and bring liquid to a simmer; cover and put pot in oven. Cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove meat from pot, allowing all excess liquid to drip back into the pot and picking any bits of vegetables or herbs off the meat. Transfer meat to a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle meat with 2 tablespoons oil and salt to taste, and toss gently to coat.
• Strain braising liquid, discarding any solids. Return sauce to pot and simmer over high heat until reduced by about half, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the broiler. Broil meat, tossing occasionally, until meat is evenly browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. You want it nicely browned in spots but not so brown that it dries out.
• To serve, drizzle meat with additional oil and top with sauce, parsley and thyme leaves. Serve on a bed of rice with pikliz on the side.
