Where to find ingredients

- Prepare the pork: remove any excess fat and let it soak in filtered water for 10 minutes.
- Drain the pork. Pierce the meat with the tip of a knife and season it solely with salt.
- In a pan, heat the butter and sauté the sliced onion until it is golden brown and slightly crispy at the edges.
- Add the pork to the pan and, little by little, baste it with the passion fruit mixture, adding the liquid gradually until the pork is cooked through.
- Continue cooking until the passion fruit sauce reduces and thickens, forming a rich glaze.
- Serve the sliced pork drizzled with the thick sauce, accompanied by farofa and white rice.
