Braised Pork and Potatoes

I don’t really know the exact name of this dish, some sites online called it Red Cooking Pork and Potatoes, some called it Braised Pork and Potatoes. For me, I call it one of my favorite dish. This is a traditional chinese dish, a stew that is very simple to prepare.

Ingredients:

3 strips of Pork loins, cut to cubes
4 Potatoes, chopped to cubes
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons of thick Soy Sauce (do keep this around as you might need to add in a tad more if it’s not to taste yet)
2 tablespoons of light Soy Sauce (do keep this around as you might need to add in a tad more if it’s not to taste yet)
2 pieces of garlic
1 red onion, sliced to 8 pieces
1 cup of water

Preparation:

Heat up the wok with some oil
Once the wok is hot enough, put flames to small
Put in the 2 pieces of garlic in and allow it to be fried til golden brown
Place pork into the wok and stir the meat til it’s almost cooked
Potato and Onions to be added and allow it to be cooked for another 3min
Pour in water, place lid of wok and allow the water to come to a simmer
Add in a dash of salt, the two type of Soy Sauce in and stir to allow the sauce to be mixed into the pork, try the sauce to check for taste and add in more sauce if you desire to taste.
Allow the dish to simmer for another 30min or until the potatoes soften and serve.

This is one of the dishes I prepare fairly often at home. It’s simple, there’s not much that needs to be done and anyone can do it.
