Caramelized Pork And Eggs Sach Chrouk Kho Nung Poang Moan Recipes

Steps:

• Cover bottom of a large, heavy skillet with one cup sugar and place over medium low heat. As soon as it melts and turns golden, add pork, raise heat to medium, and stir until coated. (Sugar will become sticky and may harden, but it will re-melt as it cooks, forming a sauce.)
• Stir in remaining sugar, salt, pepper and fish sauce. Cover and cook 2 minutes. Uncover, stir in garlic and oil and lower to simmer to reduce sauce for about 20 minutes.
• Stir in Vidalia onions and cook until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Pork should be caramelized; if not, raise heat and sauté while sauce further reduces. Transfer to serving bowl, and sprinkle with scallion greens.

Steps:

• Boil eggs in water using your preferred method. (I like to stick each egg with a thumb tack and boil for 10 minutes, then run under cold water so they don't get a green yolk.) Meanwhile, slice the pork into 2" chunks. Peel the eggs and set aside.
• In a large pot, caramelize the sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly. When it reaches a deep golden color pour the 2 cups of water over it and stir well.
• Add garlic, onion, fish sauce, sugar, salt, and coconut juice, stir until combined.
• Add the pork meat, and cook over low heat for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• When the meat is tender add the boiled eggs, and continue cooking until they are just warmed through.
• Serve hot with rice and sliced cucumber.

Steps:

• Pound chops between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper with a meat pounder (flat side) or rolling pin until meat is 1/8 inch thick.
• Make several small slits around edge of each chop.
• Half each chop lengthwise and transfer to bowl.
• In a saucepan cook sugar over medium heat until it begins to melt, continue cooking stirring until sugar is melted into a golden caramel.
• Add shallots, lime juice, fish sauce and salt and cook 2 minutes longer or until caramel is dissolved and shallots are softened.
• Pour sauce over pork, toss.
• Heat a grill pan over heat until hot, but not smoking.
• Grill pork in batches, turning once until cooked through (1-3 minutes per side).
• Discard any remaining caramel sauce.

Steps:

• Slice pork belly into 1-inch pieces layered with skin, fat, and meat.
• Heat sugar in a large wok or pot over medium heat until it melts and caramelizes into a light brown syrup, about 5 minutes. Add pork and increase heat to high. Cook and stir to render some of the pork fat, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stir shallots and garlic into the wok. Add fish sauce and black pepper; stir to evenly coat pork. Pour in coconut water and bring to a boil. Add eggs, reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, until pork is tender, about 1 hour.
• Remove wok from the heat and let stand, about 10 minutes. Skim the fat from the surface of the dish.
