- 3 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
- 3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- Salt
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Directions
- In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup water to a boil with the vinegar, sugar, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons garlic, the crushed red pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Simmer until the sauce is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
