As a child, I think we all have one thing in common, that is we agree that mom’s cooking is always the BEST.
My mom makes perfect vinegar pork. I am regret that I didn’t pick up any cooking skill from her. So, when I am craving for foods, I have to spend days and nights on the internet searching for recipes.
Today I am making one for myself and I am quite satisfied with the outcome.
One piece of boneless pork leg (prefer without skin - afraid of high cholesterols)
Handful of gingers (depends on how spicy you want it to be)
Handful of dried chilies (depends on how spicy you want it to be)
2 cups of black sour vinegar
1 cup of black sweet vinegar
4 cups of water
A pinch of brown sugar to taste
A pinch of salt to taste
1. Wash the pork leg properly, and cut into desired size.
2. Smash the gingers and set aside.
3. Boil the pork leg in a big pot of hot water for couple of minutes. Drain and wash it properly with cold water. This is to wash the blood and unwanted residues away.
4. Pour a little oil into a hot pot, pan fry gingers till fragrant.
5. Add the pork meat and fry for another few minutes.
6. Pour in vinegar and water, bring to boil then turn into low heat. Simmer for an hour.
7. Add dried chilies, simmer for another 15 minutes.
8. Add brown sugar and salt.
