Braised Pork With Mojo Sauce Recipe - Cooking Index
This is a simplified version of Havana Harry's recipe; at the restaurant, they deep-fry the pork after braising it.
Type: Pork5 1/2 lbs | 2497g / 88oz | Boneless country-style pork ribs - excess fat trimmed, |
Cut into 2" to 3" pieces | ||
2 | Low-salt chicken broth - (14 oz ea) | |
1 | Garlic head - peeled, chopped (large) | |
2 | Bay leaves | |

1 teaspoon | 5ml | Freshly-ground black pepper |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Olive oil |

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine pork, broth, half of garlic, bay leaves, salt, and pepper in large ovenproof pot. Cover tightly; bake until pork is very tender, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
Using slotted spoon, transfer pork to bowl. Boil liquid in pot until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 30 minutes. Return pork to pot; simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and remaining garlic; saute until onion is tender and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer pork to plates; spoon some pan juices over. Top with sauteed onion mixture. Serve with Mojo Sauce.
