Chinese food recipe >> Pork>> Yuanbao Pork
INGREDIENTS
 
9 oz (250g) lean and fat pork loin with skin
5 tsp. soy sauce
2 cups (500ml ) vegetable oil; uses about 1/4
1 clove of star anise, crushed
4 eggs, hard-boiled
1 tsp. fresh ginger, chopped
1 tsp. scallions, chopped
1 tsp. rice wine
1/4 tsp. salt, or to taste
RECIPE
 
  1. Boil the pork in water to cover until barely cooked. Remove, drain, and coal with 1 tsp. soy sauce.
  2. Heat the oil in a wok over a medium fire to very hot, 430oF (220oC), add the pork and deep-fry until small bubbles appear on the skin. Remove and let cool. Then cut into slies, 1/8 - inch (4mm) thick, leaving some skin on each slice. Stack the slices in a heat proof bowl, skin side down.
  3. Sprinkle the star anise and ginger over the pork. Mix together with the rice wine, salt, and 3 tsp. of soy sauce, and pour over the pork. Place the bowl in a steamer and steam over boiling water until thoroughly cooked, about one hour.
 
  • While the pork steams, shell the eggs and soak them in 1 tsp. soy sauce for 10 minutes. Reheat the oil to moderately hot and deep-fry the eggs until golden brown. Drain, let cool sightly, and cut into halves.
  • Cover the bowl containing the pork with a serving dish turned upside down. Invert the bowl so the pork slides onto the dish with skin side up. Arrange the eggs around the pork and serve.
    Note: This dish gets its name from the eggs, which resemble yuan pao, the gold ingots used as money in ancient times.
