Traditional braised pork
Overview
Braised pork is the most homely dish. There are many ways to make it, but I always feel that the traditional one is the most delicious. It has a melt-in-your-mouth feeling. The braised pork is made from lean but fatty pork front legs and is very suitable for my family's taste.
