WWF’s Earth Hour – Saturday 23rd March at 8.30pm 

Ken Hom has teamed up with WWF to provide three exclusive recipes for Earth Hour – here’s the first, a totally delicious-looking Caramel Pork that I cannot WAIT to try.

Clay Pot Caramel Pork

Serves 4

What You Need:

50g (1/3 cup) brown sugar slabs or ordinary brown sugar

(3/4 cup) chicken stock

6 tablespoons (1/3 cup) fish sauce

100g shallots, finely sliced

2 garlic cloves, finely sliced

3 spring onions, trimmed

450g pork shoulder, cut into 1 inch pieces

1 teaspoon black pepper

What you Do:

1. Cook the sugar in a heavy saucepan over a moderate heat until it starts to melt into a deep golden caramel. Pour in the stock and fish sauce. Add the shallots, garlic and the white part of the spring onions and simmer for 4 minutes.

2. Toss the pork with the black pepper and add to the sauce. Cover and simmer the pork over a low heat for 1¼  to 1½ hours until very tender.

3. Garnish with the spring onion’s green tops and serve at once.
