Add cut up pork hock, and water to cover. Cook for 3 hours. Turn off. Then another 2 hours when ready to eat. Very nice.

Mate, more than keen.

You've travelled, it's just my take on eatting stuff from where I've been. (and liked, pigs intestine is one I know I don't like....) And a bit of Google to try and recreate ....

And there is nothing wrong with kiwi cooking. We have some of the best raw products. And kiwi means don't fuck with it to much. John Dory fried, top 3 in my list. (peking duck and pork belly to round out the 3 - raw bluff oysters, salmon sashimi, fried chicken thigh, pig feet, frogs legs deep fried with chilli, koew toew noodles, the list goes on....)

Oh and pancakes are my nemesis, burnt or raw. Bastard things.

Oh and salt. Makes everything taste good.
And chilli....
