Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare all ingredients

   

2. 2 Blanch the pig's trotters in a pot, drain and set aside

   

3. 3 Pour a little oil into the pot, add the chopped onion, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, then add all the spices and stir-fry until fragrant, set aside

   

4. 4 Pour a little oil into the wok, add the rock sugar, and stir-fry over low heat until the rock sugar turns amber (I didn’t have time to take a photo at this step for fear of burning the pan)

   

5. 5 Pour the blanched pig's trotters into the pot, turn on medium-low heat and stir-fry until browned

   

6. 6 Add the fried spices and continue to stir-fry until the flavors are infused

   

7. 7 Pour in the cooking wine, light soy sauce, and dark soy sauce and continue to stir-fry evenly. Pour in boiling water (the amount of water is enough to foam the pig's trotters), bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer for about 70 to 80 minutes

   

8. 8 Try using chopsticks. If the meat is rotten, turn on high heat to remove the juice

   

9. 9 Take out the pot, put it on a plate, and start eating
