it's a very traditional taiwanese dish of stewed ground pork. it's served over rice but a good accompaniment to anything really (but that might just be the taiwanese in me). i decided to try my hand at it and it came out really good! even tastes pretty authentic to me! i served it over blanched A-choy (or goose weed, as i like to call it).
here's the recipe i used:
ingredients
1/2 - 3/4 lb ground pork (preferably with lots of fat)
1/3 cup sliced shallot
2 tbsp minced garlic
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup chinese rice wine
6 cups water
1/4 cup cooking oil
2 tbsp sugar
2 star anise
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder (or more to suit your taste)
_heat oil, saute chopped shallot and garlic until fragrant
_add star anise and ground cinnamon, stir well
_add in ground pork and stir quickly to break the meat into small bits
_add soy sauce, sugar and rice wine once the meat has changed color
_pour six cups of water and cover the pan
_let it simmer for 2-3 hours
