Stewed Pork With Tofu Puffs - Tauyu Bak
Ingredients
650 g Pork Shoulder, cut into 2 inches chunks
5 Cloves Garlic, Whole
1 Tbsp Light Soy Sauce
5 Tbsp Dark Soy Sauce
4 Cups Water
6 – 8 Large Hardboiled Eggs
1 Packet (90g) Tofu Puffs, halved
2 Tbsp Peanut Oil
Sea Salt to taste
Method
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add ½ tsp of salt and blanch the pork for about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large saucepan, heat the oil on high heat. Brown the pork and mix in the garlic. Keep stirring to prevent the garlic from burning. Mix in the light and dark soy sauce and continue to stir until all the pork has been well coated with the sauce. Add the water and bring it to a boil and simmer for 40 minutes.
Then add the eggs and continue to simmer for 25 minutes. Add the tofu puffs and continue to cook for another 15 minutes. Season the stewed pork with salt if necessary. Serve immediately.

This dish reminds me of something my mom used to make when I was a kid. She also added bok choy to hers. I LOVED pouring the sauce over rice and slurping it down!
