Thit Kho To Pork In Clay Pot Recipes

Steps:

• Make the caramel by heating the sugar in a small, heavy-based pan over a low heat.
• Stir constantly until it is moist and thick.
• Take off the heat and add the fish sauce.
• Return to a low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Add the shallots and pepper to the caramel and leave to cool.
• Pour the sauce into a claypot or flameproof casserole.
• Add the pork to the sauce.
• Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes over a low heat, stirring occasionally.
• At the end of cooking, the pork should be in a little rich gravy.
• Serve with the egg if using, spooning the gravy over them.

Steps:

• Soak pork in salted water for 2 to 3 hours. Remove pork and rinse.
• With a paring knife, cut 3 1-inch deep holes in the pork roast, fill with salt, pepper, and a garlic clove.
• In a small bowl, mix mustard, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, 1 crushed garlic clove, and crushed pepper. Cover the pork with the mustard paste.
• Coat inside of clay pot with non-stick cooking spray. Place pork inside clay pot; add beer, wine, lemon juice, water, tomato, onion, apple pieces, and remaining crushed garlic.
• Cover and place in a cold oven and set temperature for 385 degrees F. Cook for 2 1/2 hours or until meat falls off the bone. After the first hour turn the meat with a large fork and cook for an additional hour to hour and a half.
• Remove meat and let it stand for 10 minutes before carving. Arrange meat on a platter, pour part of the sauce over the meat and decorate with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Put the sugar in a medium-size heavy-bottomed pot and cook over medium heat, shaking gently every once in a while, until it starts to melt. Start stirring with a fork and continue, crushing clumps of sugar so that the sugar melts evenly. When the sugar is liquid, continue to cook for another minute or so until it darkens, then remove from heat.
• Combine the chicken stock and fish sauce and carefully add at arm's length to the sugar (it will splutter and pop). Turn heat to medium high, return sugar mixture to the heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until well combined. (If the sugar clumps when you add the liquid, don't worry, it will melt again.)
• Add the shallots, garlic, ginger, pepper, chili if using, and the white portion of the scallions. Cook, stirring frequently, until the shallots are nicely softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add pork to the pot and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, partly cover and simmer gently, stirring occasionally and adding a splash of stock or water if the pan looks too dry, until the pork is very tender and the liquid has reduced to a medium-thick sauce, about 1 hour.
• Remove from heat, add the green part of the scallions, and serve over steamed white rice.

Steps:

• Soak the lid of your clay cooker for 1/2 hour.Mine has a glazed lower part.
• Cover bottom of pot with thickly sliced onion.
• Make several slits in your roast and insert whole garlic cloves.
• Place the roast over the onions.
• Add chicken breast on the side.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place Rosemary Sprigs or leaves on the Roast.
• Pour chicken broth on the side.
• Cover and place in a cold oven.
• Set the oven to 425°F.
• Cook for 4 hours.
• Remove from oven.
• Place pork and chicken in serving platter.
• Add sliced onions on the side.
• Pour cooking liquid in sauce pan.
• Mix water and flour and whisk into boiling liquid.Simmer a few minutes.
• Pour your tasty gravy in a gravy bowl.
• Tip:.
• When I cook a roast of pork I always add chicken to give the gravy that special taste.
• I use the leftover chicken for another meal.

Steps:

• Put oil in pot or pan over medium heat, add sugar and cook, stirring frequently till it dissolves.
• Add ginger, garlic, shallots, chili, cook for about 4-5 minutes Turn up the heat to high, add pork, stir till the meat has browned a little, then add water.
• When it comes to a boil, lower heat to simmer.
• Cut hard boil eggs in half and put into pot.
• This step is optional, but the eggs will absorb all the sauce and taste heavenly!
• Cover the pot and let it simmer.
• I find the longer you leave it, the better it taste.
• But after 30-35 minutes it's done.
• Serve with cooked white rice or basmati, and that's a meal there.
• Normally we just steam cabbage or water spinach for vegetables.

Steps:

• Spray a large nonstick wok or high-sided skillet with nonstick spray and set over high heat.
• Add the scallions and garlic; stir-fry until softened, about 1 minute.
• Add the pork and stir-fry until browned, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer the content of the wok to a bowl and set aside.
• Return the wok to the heat and add the sugar; cook, stirring, until melted, lightly browned, and caramelized, about 30 seconds.
• Slowly stir in the broth.
• The caramel may form a hard lump.
• Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts again and the broth boils, about 20 seconds.
• Stir in the fish sauce and pepper, then return the pork, vegetables, and juices to the wok.
• Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce reduces to a glaze, about 2 minutes.
• Serve at once.

Steps:

• Place sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Allow to remain over heat until fully melted, and approximately the color of a US copper penny.
• Carefully add broth. It will steam and bubble wildly, and the caramel WILL seize. This is expected, and as you continue to apply heat, the caramel will dissolve back into a nice syrup.
• Add fish sauce, shallot, garlic, and white parts of scallions. Bring to a simmer until vegetables soften.
• Sprinkle pork with ground black pepper. Toss to coat, and add to pot. Simmer very low for 75-90 minutes. Serve with rice and top with scallion greens.
