Patatim

Like the pata hamonado from a few weeks ago, pata tim is a dish which consists of a whole pork leg cooked low and slow in a sweet and salty sauce. But while pineapple juice is the basis for hamonado, the addition of star anise is what determines the flavors of pata tim. My peeps, this braised pork dish is the very definition of delicious. The pork is so tender, it literally melts in your mouth.
