Production steps
1. The delicacy I want to teach you today is braised pork. It can be said that this is the most delicious way to make braised pork. First, prepare various ingredients, including a pound of pork belly, ten pieces of rock sugar, two star anise, three bay leaves, a handful of peppercorns, an appropriate amount of cumin, and cinnamon, and then prepare an appropriate amount of cooking oil, beer, and edible salt. In order to make the braised pork look better and taste more delicious, we also need to prepare some chopped green onion for decoration.
2. Let’s deal with the pork belly first. Soak the pork belly we prepared in water for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, we take it out, control the moisture, and then cut the pork belly into pieces. Segments, after cutting the pork belly into segments, put it on a plate first, then we prepare a wok, put half a pot of water in the pot, put the pork belly we cut into the water, and bring the water in the pot to a boil over high heat. , blanch the blood foam inside the meat.
3. After the water in the pot boils, we cook it for another five minutes. After the time is up, we take out all the pork belly and wash it. Clean it and set it aside for later use. Heat the oil in a pan, add the rock sugar we prepared, and stir-fry quickly until the rock sugar melts and turns into a sugary color. Stir-fry until the rock sugar melts and takes on an amber color. We put all the pork belly in and stir-fry.
4. Stir-fry the pork belly evenly until it turns into sugar color, then add a bottle of beer. There can be a little more beer. Add the beer, cover the pot, and simmer over low heat for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, open the lid of the pot and put in all the star anise, bay leaves, peppercorns, cumin and cinnamon.
5. After adding the aniseed, let’s stir it a little, then cover the lid and turn to low heat and simmer for about 40 minutes. When it cooks for 20 minutes, we open the lid and sprinkle a little salt in, then stir evenly, cover the lid and continue cooking for the remaining time. When the time is up, pick out all the ingredients.
6. After selecting the ingredients, we use high heat to collect the soup in the pot. When the soup is almost reduced, we can take it out of the pot. After taking it out of the pot, sprinkle some chopped green onion. With some decoration, a braised pork that is fat but not greasy and melts in your mouth is completed.
