PORK BELLY TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine kecap manis, black vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce and lime juice. Place pork belly in a heavy 1-gallon freezer bag with zip closure. Pour soy sauce mixture in, close bag, place in another freezer bag to prevent leaking, and refrigerate at least 24 hours, turning from time to time.
• The next day, heat oven to 225 degrees. Place pork skin side up in a roasting pan with a close fit, pour in marinade, add about 1/3 cup water so liquid comes halfway up sides of pork. Cover with a sheet of parchment, then tightly cover with foil. Place in oven and roast about 3 hours, until a skewer inserted in pork meets little or no resistance. Allow to cool in pan about 30 minutes.
• While pork cooks, trim scallions, discarding all but about an inch of green, and slice very thin at an angle. Place in a bowl, toss with a little salt, and pour rice vinegar over. Cover and allow to marinate at least 2 hours. In a separate bowl mix mayonnaise with garlic and sambal oelek.
• When pork has cooled, remove skin. Cut pork in 4-inch-long chunks and cut each into very thin slices. You should be able to make at least 36 4-inch slices.
• Place bread on a work surface and spread each piece with mayonnaise mixture. Drain scallions and scatter them over half the bread slices. Top each of these with 3 slices pork lined side by side in a single layer. Place 2 cilantro sprigs on pork, then cover with remaining bread, mayonnaise side down. Trim crusts from each sandwich. Leave sandwiches whole or cut each into thirds, between the slices of pork, and serve.
