1. Pig's feet pull out the hair, rinse with water and soak for 15 minutes.

2. 2, ready to braise the main spices and ingredients, home cooking braised dishes is not the more spices the better, in the premise of not familiar with the spices is best to choose their own familiar. I am accustomed to choose: onion and ginger amount, pepper 10g, chili 5g, anise two, a small piece of cinnamon, grass nuts, a 2-3 leaves, dry papaya slices (no can not be added), rock sugar 30g (this ingredient when all the braised vegetables, braised dishes are mainly to eat the flavor of the meat itself, if the spices are too much on the brine instead of eating the flavor of the ingredients themselves. Sometimes you can not even put spices, such as the traditional dish Dongpo meat only put butter soy sauce and rock sugar.)

3. high-pressure pot of cold water into the pig's feet, two tablespoons of cooking wine, onion and ginger moderate boil (high white wine in addition to better fishy effect, if it is an electric pressure cooker, blanching steps with the cooking pot instead of other steps are the same).

4. After boiling with cool water to rinse the pig's feet (do not worry about the skin cooking does not suck).

5. Pour a little cooking oil in the pot (a little bit is good, less than the amount of fried vegetables, if it is an electric pressure cooker preheated in advance is good).

6. Add cinnamon, star anise, peppercorns, chili peppers, strawberries and stir-fry for flavor.

7. and then into the onion ginger a few slices of fried flavor (can not and step 6 of the spices together, because the onion ginger mature faster together, if you do not master the fire easily paste off).

8. This time pour into the fire open big, blanched and cleaned pig's feet.

9. Cook two tablespoons of cooking wine.

10. In advance of the soy sauce three tablespoons, a tablespoon of soy sauce, a tablespoon of oyster sauce, salt half a tablespoon blended into a bowl of juice (in advance to add a portion of the salt to taste, do not add enough salt at one time too much adverse to the meat to cook).

11. Pour into the blended bowl juice.

12. Add boiling water will be no more than pig's feet can be (not too much, otherwise it is not braised, into the brine boiled pig's feet).

13. Lastly, put the rock sugar and dry papaya pieces (dry papaya pieces are not fruit papaya dried, is a green papaya connotes the enzyme can make the meat soft, eat up but not too greasy, with lemon hawthorn role is the same, if not can not add or put a few pieces of lemon, hawthorn).

14. pressure cooker or electric pressure cooker lid, pressure cooker on low heat for 20 minutes to cool and open the pot to add salt and chicken essence to the right amount of juice to the extent that you like; if the electric pressure cooker pig's feet file 30-35 minutes or so. (open pot and then add a small spoon of salt, because before the bowl of juice already have salt, so the pig's feet have been into a certain flavor, this time only need to adjust the salinity of the last on the good. (Time is not too long or it will become pig's feet soup).
