braised pork

Overview

You can make delicious braised pork without frying the sugar! Fragrant, soft and not greasy~

Wash the pork belly, cut into pieces about 2 cm in size, and slice the ginger.
Pour oil into the pot, add cinnamon and star anise when the oil is cold, and stir-fry over low heat until fragrant.
Change to high heat, add chopped pork belly pieces and stir-fry.
After the meat changes color, continue to stir-fry for a few minutes to fry the fat part to release the oil.
Then pour in the dark soy sauce, add salt and sugar, and continue to stir-fry.
Mix all the seasonings until the meat is evenly colored.
Pour in boiling water (must be boiling water!!! Never cold water).
The amount of water should cover the meat and skim off the foam after boiling.
Add ginger slices. In this step, you can add a few red dates or kelp and carrots that have been processed in advance.
Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 40 minutes. During this period, pay attention to the amount of water in the pot. If it is not enough, add a little boiling water.
After 40 minutes, open the lid, reduce the soup over high heat, and coat each piece of meat with a layer of thick and thick soup, then serve on a plate.
