Thịt Kho Tàu (Caramelised Pork & Egg Clay Pot) 🍮

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Rub the pork with half the nước màu, fish sauce and garlic; rest 20 minutes while the pot heats.

2. 2

   Sear the pork cubes fat-side down in a clay pot (or heavy pan) until the edges caramelise, then pour in remaining nước màu, shallots, coconut water and fish sauce to just cover.

3. 3

   Nestle in the peeled eggs and the dried chilli. Barely simmer, uncovered, 45 minutes — a lazy bubble, never a boil, or the sauce goes grainy.

4. 4

   Reduce until the sauce is a lacquer that coats a spoon; eggs should be stained mahogany to the yolk.

5. 5

   Scatter spring onion. Serve from the pot with rice, pickled greens to cut the sweetness.
