Taiwanese Braised Pork Rice--home-cooked Meal
1.
Cut the pork belly into shreds and put it in the pot slowly because of the oil.
2.
Chop shallots and garlic, and diced shallots.
3.
Stir the shredded pork on medium heat to give it a scorched aroma. If there is too much oil, you can scoop it up.
4.
Poke the meat on one side, and put the chopped shallots on the empty side, because it is not easy to mash and sauté.
5.
Pour in fresh chopped green onion, dried chopped green onion, 1/2 star anise, and sauté.
6.
Add the minced garlic again, because the minced garlic is easy to paste, so put it in the end and continue to saute.
7.
Add 1 tbsp rock sugar and 1/2 tbsp brown sugar powder, stir fry until fragrant, then pour about 3 tbsp light soy sauce, 1/4 tsp salt, 1 tbsp dark soy sauce from the side of the pot, stir evenly, if worried If the saltiness is not enough or too weak, you can adjust the saltiness with the amount of soy sauce.
8.
Add water to cover the meat noodles, add 1/2 tsp of pepper, and stir well.
9.
Put all the materials into the electric pressure cooker and set the pressure cooker for 10 minutes.
10.
After the meat is stewed, put it in a ceramic pot, add white water to boil the eggs, and simmer slowly.
11.
When stewing the meat, you can free up your hands to fry the tofu until golden brown, so that the tofu will be more tasty and not easy to rot when stewed.
12.
Put the fried tofu in a casserole and simmer slowly with the meat and eggs for about 30 minutes. When the time is up, turn off the heat and let it stand for at least 20 minutes. It will taste good. After everything is OK, you can put it on the rice and eat it with the rice. Fragrant. Enjoy!
Tips:
1. It's best to make braised pork at 2 catties or more. Of course, the ingredients should be increased accordingly. I am doing an experiment this time and I dare not do more. If it succeeds, I will do more next time, haha.
2. The minced garlic should be put after the shallots and chopped green onions, because the minced garlic is easy to fry.
3. James suggested to use five-spice powder, but I can avoid five-spice powder by putting anise in it.
4. Fry the northern tofu and simmer it in the meat. It is not easy to turn and taste. Wait for a good taste after the meal.
