Tips for the Perfect Pork Adobo:

- Browning the Pork: For an extra layer of flavor, you can lightly brown the pork belly before adding the liquids. This creates a delicious caramelized crust.
- Serving Suggestions: Beyond white rice, this Pork Adobo pairs wonderfully with a side of sautéed greens or a simple tomato and onion salad to cut through its richness.
