This is a traditional Chinese dish that almost every Chinese descendant has tried. I'm sharing my ancestors' recipe... hehhehe

Steps

1

Clean the pork leg thoroughly.
2

Sauté the garlic until fragrant, then add the pork leg, spices, and sauces. Stir briefly. Add water. Bring to a boil. Cover with a lid. Reduce the heat and cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
3

If using a pressure cooker: After sautéing and boiling in the pan, transfer to the pressure cooker. Cook for about 20 minutes. Let it cool before opening. Don't cook too long in the pressure cooker to avoid it becoming too soft like porridge. The meat should still have texture.
