How to make Sweet caramelized pork with rice
Step 1: Start by chopping the onion. Into small pieces, slice the pork.
Step 2: In a large, wide skillet, heat the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onions and pork to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes or until the meat is well browned.
Step 3: Pour in the water and add the soy sauce, sugar, and fish sauce. Bring everything to a light boil. Let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes to 1 hour or until almost all the water has thickened and turned into a brown caramel-like sauce.
