3. Wash pork in hot /warm water to remove any foam..
4. Make caramel (can use caramel coloring soy sauce to replace this step) Add small amount of oil to work, add sugar (about 3 tbsp). Keep stirring while heating up, until sugar melts and the will turn into caramel fairly quickly. Add pork to coat the caramel on pork. (Watch for oil splatter).
