Another recipe that I am going to try

recipe for Tau Yu Bak (Stewed Pork in Soya Sauce)

Ingredients
300 gms of belly pork or pork ribs. (If belly pork is used, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (fat at the top, lean at bottom). If pork ribs are used, choose meaty ones and ask butcher to cut into 2 inch lengths)
100 gms of tau ki (also known as foo chok. Ask for stiff type)
5 to 8 chinese dried mushrooms (pre-soak till soft)
3 whole bulbs of garlic
2 bowls of warm water (approximately 500 mls)

Seasoning
3 tablespoons dark soya sauce
1 1/2 tablespoon sugar
2 star anise
3 inches ceylon cinnamon (kayu manis)
salt to taste
white pepper to taste

Method

Heat pot. Add sugar. Once sugar caramelised, add meat and coat it with caramelised sugar to lock juices in.

Add water, garlic, chinese dried mushrooms and seasoning. (This is also the time to add hard boiled eggs and / or tau pok if you wish to have more ingredients)

Once start to boil, close lid, reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour. Then add tau ki and simmer for a further 30 minutes. Add boiling water is stew becomes too dry.
