Method: 

1. Combine pork and the marinade, let marinate for 30 minutes. Heat some oil, stir-fry the garlic and onion till aromatic.

2. Stir-fry the pork followed by the potatoes, add a few dashes of black pepper while stir-frying. 


3. Add carrot, stir in sauce and some water. Cover and pressure cook for 3-5 minutes (NPR) or simmer until the potatoes are tender. Adjust the cooking time according to the thickness/ size of the ingredients. Serve warm with steamed rice.

Note: If you're using shabu-shabu pork, just simmer till all the ingredients are cooked through. Use pressure cook function if you're using sliced pork which is thicker/ tougher and takes longer time to tenderise. Use the reversible rack if you're cooking it together with rice. Adjust the taste with more/ less light soy sauce.

Ginkgo Nut Pork Tripe Soup aka Pig Stomach Soup 白果腐竹猪肚汤【补胃养生汤】


This is my son's favourite soup! However, I never intend to cook this soup at home because we can get a pretty good one at Lao Huo Tang restaurant. And, the main reason is that cleaning the pig's stomach is a disaster as I can't stand the odour of the raw pig's organ 【 I had a bad experience with this smell. It smells like the dead rat that I dissected during my school day's science lab experiment >0< 】

Then why is this recipe here?! That's because my boy told his grandma he loves to eat pig stomach, so my MIL went to the market and bought it, cleaned and packed it frozen for me. All I have to do is to blanch it and it's ready to cook! :D 

This soup is highly nourishing and it helps to strengthen the body, spleen and stomach. Sharing here's my version of 老火汤 that the son approved! 

Ingredients:
中文食谱:请在网页的右边点击Translate,然后选择中文翻译

1 Kampong Chicken Carcass/ 300g Pork Big Bones


1-2 tsp White Peppercorns, add more if you like a stronger pepper taste


2pcs Scallops, rehydrate 


1 stick DangShen 党参


10g Dried Beancurd Skin/ Fuchuk, soak to soften 


6pcs Red Dates


2 slices Ginger


20pcs Ginkgo Nut


1 heap tbsp Wolfberries 


Some Salt, add to taste

Method:

2. Place all ingredients in the pot (except ginkgo nuts, wolfberries and salt), add hot water and bring it to a boil and lower the heat to medium, cover and cook for 2 hours. Add ginkgo nuts and continue cooking for 1 hour. Slice the pork stomach, add the wolfberries and salt to taste, simmer for 10mins and it's ready to serve. If you're using a pressure cooker <<CLICK HERE>>  to my older soup recipe post for reference.
