Thai sweet pork or Moo Wan is a very traditional dish loved by many children and adults alike. You would not really see this dish on the menu in Thai restaurants over here. So if you want to try something authentic and simple to make, then give this a try.

You can also use pork belly with this dish if you wish, it tastes just as great. I would recommend serving this with jasmine rice and some sliced cucumber or stir fry mixed vegetables.
