This household loves stew. That’s why most of the dishes my MIL cooks are very simple and easy ones. We all eat at random hours. This morning, she made another pot of stew again. With just a few simple ingredients, we get to enjoy a good pot of stew that goes well with both rice and plain noodles.
You only need Roasted Pork or “Siew Yook”, one Chinese cabbage, and a packet of taupok. As for seasoning, fry some chopped ginger and garlic till fragrant inside a claypot. Put all ingredients into the claypot. Dont add too much water to it as the Cabbage will shrink. Then, pour some “Siew Heng” wine (Chinese Cooking Wine) to it.
Add some light soy sauce to it. Use dark soy sauce if you like it darker, k. You dont need salt as the Roasted Pork is already salty to begin with. Sometimes, my MIL will even fry the “Siew Yook” until fragrant before she makes this stew. This will depend on her mood lah. Simple mah, haimai. Cook on high till it boils and turn the heat down and let it simmer for an hour or two.
This is an upclose and personal shot of the bowl of Roasted Pork, Chinese cabbage and Taupok stew. Top it with a dash of soy sauce if you feel it’s not salty enough. Me, i always add some to it. Sometimes, i will eat it with Apple Cider Vinegar for a tangy taste.Try it one day when you are lazy and dont like cooking up a storm, k. Delicious comfort food!!!
