Soy Sauce Braised Pork (Tau Eu Bak)

• Main
• 600g pork belly (cut into 3cm chunks)
• 1 cornflour
• 1 tablespoon salt
• Gravy
• 500 milliliters water
• 1.5 tablespoons dark soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground five spice
• 10 white peppercorns (cracked)
• 12 cloves garlic with skin
• 4 boiled eggs
• 1 teaspoon sugar to taste (optional)
• sambal belacan (optional)

1. Rub pork with cornflour and salt to clean it then wash under running water until rid of any flour traces.
2. Blanch the pork in boiling water to remove odour from meat and rinse under running water. Set pork aside.
3. Combine gravy ingredients in a pot then bring to boil. Add pork into pot and simmer for 10 minutes before adding in garlic.
4. Add in boiled eggs and sugar then continue to simmer for another 30 minutes or until meat is tender.
5. Serve with sambal belacan on the side. This will make the braised pork spicy and more fragrant.
