Mr. Xiaoyan and his daughters like to eat braised products. Although there are places selling braised products in the market nowadays, to be honest, although the braised meats sold are delicious, they are really uneasy when you eat them. It is better to make them at home. The vegetarian sauce is in a pot, each has its own preference, and the whole family is happy. You can also make more of them at once and store them in the refrigerator, and take them as you eat, which is very convenient~~
This time I marinated pork belly, boneless chicken drumsticks, tofu, eggs, and two pieces of dried tofu. You can also marinate some chicken feet, chicken wings, lotus root and the like according to your preference.
Finally, I want to tell you that the marinated tofu sucks enough soup and is really better than meat. If you don't believe me, try! "

Braised Pork Belly & Braised Tofu

1. Main ingredients: pork belly, northern tofu, eggs, dried tofu.

2. Eggs are cooked and peeled for later use

3. Cut the dried tofu straight into the middle for a few minutes to taste, and cut the northern tofu into 2 cm thick slices. The chicken legs are boneless and rolled tightly and tied with cotton rope.

4. Put the sliced tofu into a frying pan, and fry them until golden brown on several sides, and serve them with firmness for later use.

5. Pork belly and rolled chicken legs in a pot under cold water, add green onion, ginger, cooking wine and boil over high heat to remove the foam and blanch

6. Remove the blanched pork belly and chicken drumstick rolls.

7. Braised pork seasoning: old braised soup, stewed pork bag, dried chili, star anise, rock sugar, dahurian angelica, clove vanilla fruit, bay leaves and other spices

8. Put a little water in the pot, add the crushed rock sugar and fry the sugar color over a low fire.

9. Stir-fry until the sugar color turns into a deep amber color (a little darker than the color on the picture)

10. After frying into a deep amber color, quickly pour half a bowl of water into a sugar color

11. The blanched pork belly and chicken thigh rolls are put into a boiling pot together. Pour in the fried sugar, and old brine soup, add all the seasonings, salt, and dark soy sauce.

12. The pork belly and chicken drumsticks are marinated for 20 minutes, then add dried tofu, fried tofu, and eggs, and continue to marinate.

13. The braised pork belly can be easily pierced with chopsticks to turn off the fire. (Don't rush to take it out after the marinade is done, continue to soak the ingredients in the marinade soup to let them taste good)

14. After cooling thoroughly, cut into slices and eat

Tips:
It doesn't matter if there is no old soup. When marinating, put a little more seasoning, and filter the used up soup to remove the dregs and freeze it in the refrigerator. After a few times, it will become old soup!
