Peranakan Babi Pongteh/ Nyonya Pork Stew 娘惹豆酱焖猪肉 [Pressure Cooker Recipe]

Babi Pongteh is a Peranakan pork stew flavored with fermented bean paste, added gula Melaka for the sweetness and aroma. This dish required at least 2 hours of slow cooking over the stove to tenderize the meat. In this blog post, I'm sharing a simplified recipe using Ninja Food, cooked in a much shorter time, without deep-frying.

~ Starts with air-fry the potatoes with minimal oil, this is easier and healthier compared to deep-frying the potatoes. 

~ In the same pot, use Saute mode to stir-fry the ingredients.

~ Pressure cook the pork together with rice for 10 minutes. 

It's so quick and easy cooking everything in the same pot. After cooking, just wash one pot and all the cleaning is complete! << Read more about the Ninja Foodi OP300 and where to buy Ninja Foodi at the best price >>

Method：

1. Combine the pork with the marinade ingredients, let marinate overnight in the fridge.

2. Lightly coat potatoes with some oil, cook using Ninja Foodi AirCrisp mode 210'C for 6 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the pot, set aside. 

3. Select Sear/Saute mode, heat some oil, fry the shallot and garlic till fragrant, stir in fermented soybean paste, add in mushroom and pork, stir fry until half-cooked, add in potatoes and cinnamon, continue to stir fry for a minute.

4. Add in the rest of the ingredients. Top up some water to 4 cups level.

5. If cooking with rice, use the reversible rack and place the rice on top. Rice and water ratio is 2:3.

6. Pressure cook in Ninja Foodi on high for 10 minutes, natural pressure release 10 minutes. Serve warm. Ninja Foodi pressure cooking uses super-heated steam to quickly cook tender meals up to 70% faster than traditional cooking methods. Cooking pork belly in Ninja Foodi is easier and quicker compared to the conventional method, the pork turned out so tender and succulent, the sauce is thick and flavorful. Besides pressure cooking, there are other functions such as air-fry, steam, slow cook, sear/ saute, bake/ roast, grill, dehydrate, sous vide, yoghurt, and keep warm. This cooker helps prepare quick meals without hassle, which I highly recommend to everyone who loves easy and hassle-free cooking with fewer pots and pans to wash. If you're interested, you can use our exclusive discount code to buy at the best market rate. I've attached the details and links below for easy reference.
