Babi Pangang is a symphony of sweet, sour, savory, and umami flavors. The crispy pork contrasts beautifully with the tangy sauce, making it a delightful culinary experience.
The dominant flavors are sweet and sour, derived from the tomato-based sauce, which typically includes ingredients like tomato puree, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Ginger, garlic, and chili contribute warm, savory, and subtly spicy notes. The pork itself, typically pork belly, is prepared to be crispy and fatty, providing a rich, savory base that balances the sweetness and acidity of the sauce. The combination is usually completed with vegetables like leeks, onions, or bell peppers.

Crispy Pork Perfection
To ensure the pork is crispy, pre-boil the pork belly before roasting or frying. This helps render out excess fat and allows the skin to become incredibly crispy. Pat the pork dry thoroughly before frying/roasting to remove excess moisture. Consider using an air fryer for a healthier, equally crispy result.
Sauce Consistency
Adjust the sweetness and sourness of the sauce to your liking. Simmer the sauce gently to allow the flavors to meld and thicken. You can use cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce if needed, but be careful not to over-thicken it.
Marinade Matters
Marinating the pork overnight or for several hours will enhance its flavor and tenderness. Use a combination of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and other spices to infuse the pork with depth.
