There are many ways to make braised pork. In Sichuan, braised Douban dishes are more common; in Shandong, braised with sugar and soy sauce is more common. Today, I will introduce a simple but classic Lu-style braised pork which I prefer. It only uses the soy sauce with sea and sky straw mushrooms, and does not use sugar. In the braised pork, quail eggs and tofu are added. During the cooking process, these two materials fully absorb the fragrant soup of the pork belly, which is very delicious. "

Lu Style Classic Braised Pork

1. Wash the pork belly and cut into pieces. (You can blanch the water, skip this step if you are too lazy to blanch)

2. Ginger slices.

3. Cut the tofu into cubes, put it in a frying pan, and fry the surface slightly yellow.

4. Peel the quail eggs, put them in a frying pan, and fry them until the surface is slightly yellow.

5. Leave the bottom oil in the pan, heat it up, add pork belly, ginger slices, and pepper, stir fry until the pork belly comes out of oil

6. Pour in the light soy sauce and stir-fry until the steam dries. Add star anise and cinnamon and continue to stir-fry until the surface of the meat is slightly yellow.

7. Pour in the right amount of water, the water should be one centimeter higher than the pork belly. If you need to add water during the burning process, please add hot water, and be sure not to use cold water.

8. Add dark soy sauce, rock sugar (or white sugar), and cooking wine. After boiling, put on medium-low heat for 15 minutes, then pour in the fried quail eggs, tofu, and appropriate amount of salt. Continue to cook until the pork belly is soft.
