Braised Pork Trotter, not so traditional way

Some of you may already know that I recently quit my job and into "rest mode".
Well, what else are great to do when you're having the time of your life?!!

FOOD!!!
ofcourse!! haa

I bought a cook book and found the recipe below are quite easy and interesting!
So planning to give myself a GO!~~



Well well...
after i bought the trotter...




I figure most of the ingredient needed I do not have it at home!
Haaaa!!  I knew it!

Well well,
I kinda give myself a little though about what we have at home and hmmm,
Below are my "improved" recipe: (which I think it make our life easier too ^^ )


What you need to buy:
1. Port Trotter (at this size and weight, it cost me RM25)
2. A packet of Bah Kut Teh mix

What else you need?
8~10pcs of small size Lump Sugar
Ground pepper (approx 1 tea spoon)
2 spoon of dark soy
1 bowl of chicken broth
5 slices ginger

Is that all??
Yeap!!!


How do you make it?
1. Put your trotter into hot boiled water soak for 5 minutes
(this step is to clean up the trotter,
firm the shape,
and allow your trotter juice well keep inside)

2. Put your trotter with all the ingredient into a pot,
add water just nice to cover the whole trotter and let it
simmer for 1 and half hour
(or longer if you wish)

and WA~LA~~~~



PS.
I added boiled eggs after the trotter was done.
Since the trotter were so huge for just the 2 of us,
so with a plate full of vegie we are good to dig in!!

Bon Apetite!!!
