My mother-in-law is very good at cooking, and she often helps other people’s cooks. The braised pork knuckles made by her are absolutely delicious. The ones that have been eaten are said to be good, fragrant but not greasy. The more you eat, the more addictive you are. . Husband is also very greedy for this meat dish, every time he has to eat it all before he is willing to put his chopsticks.

During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, we all went back with our children. On the day of the return trip, I was afraid of motion sickness so I didn't dare to eat too much. My mother-in-law gave us a bag of cooked trotters and taught me how to do it. It turns out that in addition to blanching the trotters, there is a very critical step. Without putting a little oil in the pot, stir the pig's feet in the pot for a few minutes, so that the peculiar smell of the pig's feet can be removed, and it will not feel greasy. In the evening, I cooked a plate of braised pork knuckles according to my mother-in-law's method. This is probably the easiest way to make pig's trotter, and it's not troublesome at all. If you like to eat pig's trotter, hurry up and collect it!

Tip: This step is the key to keeping the smell of pig's feet without getting greasy. Don't turn on high heat to avoid burning. Slowly stir until slightly yellow on medium heat. The process is very fragrant. Remember to control your saliva!

6. Pour in half a bowl of cooking wine and half a bowl of water, sprinkle in salt and stir-fry, simmer for about ten minutes.

Tip: I use boiled trotters, so I just need to cook them for a good taste. It takes more than an hour to cook with raw trotters, or use a pressure cooker, which will be faster.
