Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Bought a pig's trotter, plucked the hair, washed it, and cut the ginger slices into pieces.

   

2. 2 Boil a pot of water, add the pig's trotters and turmeric, add a little cooking wine, cook for 6-7 minutes, wait until the foam completely comes out, remove and wash.

   

3. 3 Add a small amount of oil to the iron pan. After the oil boils, put the rock sugar into the wok. Be sure to fry the sugar color over low heat. When the sugar has completely melted, add the pig's trotters and slowly fry until the whole body of the pig's trotters is golden. Add salt, dried chili pepper, grass fruit, light soy sauce and star anise, continue to stir-fry for a while until the aroma becomes fragrant, then transfer the ingredients to a small casserole.

   

4. 4 Add water to just cover the pig's trotters, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer.

   

5. 5 After simmering for about an hour and a half, reduce the juice over high heat, remove from the pot, and start eating! (During the simmering process, you can open the lid and poke the pig's trotters with chopsticks. You can decide whether the trotters are as soft or hard as you like)
