Instructions
For the pork
In a bowl, add in all the seasonings & lemongrass. Mix well and then add in the pork belly and mix well. Cover and let it marinade overnight or up to 2 hrs before cooking. When ready to cook, line a sheet tray with foil and a baking rack over to help drain access fat. Cook in the oven on broil at 450'F for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, flip the pork to the other side and broil for another 20-25 more minutes (adjust time depending on your oven) or cook to your desire color. Let it cool for 5 minutes before cutting it into smaller bite size pieces. Serve with rice and pepper dip. You can also air fry, pan fry, deep fry, and or bbq the pork. It's up to you.
For the roasted tomato pepper dip
Place the cherry tomatoes, chili peppers, and garlic in your air fryer to roast for about 20 minutes at 375'F. You can also cook it in the oven. Just place the tomato, peppers, & garlic on a foil lined pan and cook in the oven under broiled @ 500' F for about 12-15 minutes or until it is nicely roasted. Stir halfway through as needed and then take out.
In a mortar and pestle, add in the roasted garlic, pepper, and 1/2 tsp of salt. Pound until the peppers/garlic are completely smashed up. Then add in the roasted tomatoes and pound away. Once it is nicely pounded, add in the chopped cilantro, green onions, and fish sauce. Mix well, taste and serve!
