Thit Kho (Caramelized Pork)
loading...
Ingredients
- vegetable oil for frying
- 1 clove of garlic, smashed
- 2 lb. pork shoulder or pork butt, cubed
- 8 tablespoons fish sauce
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- salt to taste
- eggs (however many you want, I think I usually do 6)
- thick soy sauce
- 2 cans regular coconut water
Steps
- In a pot, fry pork with vegetable oil & garlic
- Add fish sauce, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and salt
- Meanwhile, boil eggs for 20 minutes. Peel and poke all over with toothpick.
- Take pork out of sauce and put 1 layer of eggs.
- Top with 1 layer of pork. Continue layering and alternating eggs and pork. (With this small amount I usually only have 1 layer of each, but if you make more this is what you'd do).
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and thick soy sauce on top. Cover and heat on medium until the sauce at the bottom is boiling.
- Pour in coconut water. Bring to a boil on medium high.
- Skim the fat. Reduce heat to medium or medium-low.
- Cover and simmer for 45 minutes - 1 hour.
- Reverse the layers of egg and pork (bottom is now the top). Simmer and additional 30 minutes.
