A flavorful and tender pork roast cooked in a slow cooker with garlic and soy sauce.
Season the pork roast generously with salt and ground black pepper on all sides.
Seasoning the meat well ensures the flavors penetrate during cooking.
Make small cuts in the pork roast and insert slivers of fresh garlic into the cuts.
This step infuses the meat with a rich garlic flavor.
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and sear the pork roast on all sides until browned.
Searing the meat locks in the juices and adds a caramelized flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the hot water and soy sauce.
Mixing the liquids beforehand ensures even distribution of flavors.
Place one sliced onion at the bottom of the slow cooker.
The onion acts as a base to prevent the meat from sticking.
Add the seared pork roast on top of the onion, then add the remaining sliced onion, bay leaf, and the soy sauce mixture.
Layering the ingredients ensures even cooking and flavor distribution.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours.
Cooking on low heat for a longer time makes the meat more tender.
Once cooked, remove the pork roast and place it on a serving platter.
Let the meat rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain its juices.
To make the gravy, mix cornstarch with cold water to form a smooth paste, then stir it into the cooking liquid in the slow cooker and let it thicken.
Stir continuously to avoid lumps in the gravy.
Serve the pork roast with the thickened gravy and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh herbs for an added touch of color and flavor.
