Slice the Pork

Cut the pork into thin long strips. Keep the thickness even for better cooking and texture.

Prepare the Marinade

Mix soy sauce, fish sauce, honey, sugar, garlic paste, pepper, and chili flakes until fully combined.

Coat the Pork Well

Add pork strips to the marinade and mix well. Make sure every piece is covered completely.

Rest the Pork

Let the pork rest for at least one hour. This helps the meat soak up all flavors deeply.

Preheat Your Cooking Tool

Preheat your air fryer or oven to medium-high heat. This step ensures even cooking texture.

Arrange the Pork

Place pork strips on a tray in a single layer. Do not overlap or they will not cook evenly.

Start Cooking

Cook for 20 minutes, then flip the pork pieces. This step helps both sides turn golden and firm.

Cook Until Dry

Continue cooking until the pork looks dry outside but still soft inside. Do not let it burn.

Add Extra Crunch

For a crispier finish, cook for three extra minutes. Watch closely to avoid overcooking the strips.

Cool and Serve

Let the jerky cool fully before serving. The texture becomes firmer and more enjoyable as it cools.
