This was supposedly Mao Zedong's favourite dish, what he called his "brain food" that helped him defeat his enemies. It's doubtful that most of us will ever obtain the Ningxiang pork required for the authentic recipe as codified by the Hunan provincial authority, but we can make do with what we can get. Based on a recipe from the Woks of Life blog. 🇨🇳

I’ve been making a lot of slow cooked meals during this cold season. If you start this after lunch, you might be able to eat it by dinner time. There are a lot of variations on this dish but I used some things that I had on hand.

I was selected to be a taste tester for Mizkan grain vinegar. I decided to make a sweet and refreshing version of one of our family's favorite recipes, Dongpo Pork using star anise, which goes well with vinegar. I used ingredient amounts that are easy to remember.Don't skip Step 1 where you sear the pork seals in the umami flavor.The flavoring is on the sweet side, so during Step 7 you can adjust amount of soy sauce and sugar to your liking.I like the eggs soft set, so I boil them separately. The boiled eggs will become flavored when you add them at Step 7. Recipe by Youtank

This dish appeared in the Thai movie “Enchante”… Because I loved the movie and its characters, I searched for the recipe and tried cooking it. This dish has a different flavor compared to the familiar Vietnamese-style braised pork.

Busy students or working people can cook a pot over the weekend. When ready to eat, blanch some vegetables, and enjoy an easy meal for a week.

Simple dish with added Chickpea ,Optional additional Thai sweet Chili sauce , just the perfect Flavour I enjoy with plain white rice on a rainy dayBest flavoured if it's cooked earlier and keep warm and let its Flavour intense after few hours , simply heat it up and enjoy
