Add the pork and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until just browned. Add the stock, coconut milk and coriander, and stir to combine. Cover, reduce the heat and gently simmer for 2 hours 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pork to a plate, then increase the heat. Gently simmer the sauce for 15 minutes until reduced. Meanwhile, shred the pork using two forks, then stir through the sauce.
