Braised pork is a very classic Chinese dish, its taste is delicious, fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, and it is deeply loved by the majority of diners. Today, we are going to share the home-cooked recipe of braised pork.
First of all, we need to prepare some main ingredients: pork belly, ginger, green onions, garlic, cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rock sugar, star anise, cinnamon and bay leaves. In the process of preparing the ingredients, we need to cut the pork belly into evenly sized pieces, cut the ginger and green onions into pieces, and crush the garlic for later use.
Next, we blanch the sliced pork belly in boiling water to remove blood and impurities. Then, remove the blanched pork belly and drain it for later use.
Heat the oil in a pan and heat the rock sugar slowly over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spoon until the rock sugar is completely melted and turns red. Then, put the blanched pork belly into the pan and stir-fry so that the pork belly is evenly coated with sugar.
Next, add the chopped ginger and green onions, then add the garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add an appropriate amount of cooking wine, light soy sauce and dark soy sauce and stir-fry evenly.
Finally, add enough water to cover the meat surface, add star anise, cinnamon and bay leaves, and slowly simmer over low heat for about an hour until the pork belly is soft and delicious.
During the cooking process, we need to turn the pieces of meat from time to time so as not to burn the bottom. An hour later, when the soup thickens, the braised pork is ready.
Now, we can serve the finished braised pork on a plate. This dish is very tasty and nutritious, making it a rare and good dish.
