1 onion, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup coconut milk
1 cup coconut cream

Procedure:
In a bowl of water with salt, soak chili peppers for 30 minutes then rinse and strain.
In a cooking pan, heat cooking oil and cooked sliced pork for a few minutes.
In another pan, sauté minced garlic and onion. Add and sauté the pork.
Add the coconut milk, bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
