Directions
To Prepare Braised Pork with Tiger Skin Eggs
- Wash eggs and place in a saucepan and fill with water enough to cover the eggs and boil until cooked. Remove the eggs and soak them in cold water for a few mins before cracking and peeling the shell off.
- In another medium pot, heat up oil to half the pot until about 70% hot then slide in the peeled eggs. Fry until the eggs’ skin turns slightly brown with creases. Remove and place onto paper towel to drain off excess oil.
- Cut pork belly into 1”x1” chunks and blanch in a pot of boiling water to remove scum. Drain well.
- Heat up a frying pan with 1 tbsp of cold oil and fry the rock sugar until it starts to caramelize. Add in the blanched pork belly and fry for 3 mins. *Beware of oil spitting from the pan*
- Add in salt and light soy sauce, and fry for 5 mins. Pour in the cooking wine, spring onions and ginger. Continue to fry for a few mins.
- Pour in about 150ml of the water that was used to blanch the meat eatlier and cook for a while. Cover and simmer at low heat for about 30 mins.
- Toss in the fried eggs and continue cooking for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens up.
- Serve with hot rice.
