Braised pork trotters

Overview

Pig's trotters are rich in collagen and are the main ingredient for beauty. It is a good choice to eat some stews to warm the body in winter. The Sichuan way of eating is Lao Ma's trotters. Only kidney beans are put in the pig's trotters. However, my mother-in-law is not used to eating kidney beans, so I put vegetables instead.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash and chop 2 pig trotters into pieces and blanch them in a pot under cold water

   

2. 2 While blanching the water, use a casserole to sit in a pot of boiling water

   

3. 3 Put the blanched pig's trotters into a casserole

   

4. 4 Cut the green onion into sections, pat the ginger whole with a knife, 4 garlic cloves, 2 sections of tangerine peel, 10 peppercorns, and 1 star anise

   

5. 5 Put all the seasonings into the pot. It is best to wrap them with gauze or a seasoning box. Mine is broken, so I have to put it directly into the pot

   

6. 6 After adding the seasonings, add a few drops of white vinegar. White vinegar can quickly decompose fat, making it easier for the body to absorb and cook

   

7. 7 Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat for an hour

   

8. 8 Pour the cut lotus roots and green bamboo shoots into the casserole

   

9. 9 Just cook it for five or six minutes. Add appropriate amount of salt, chicken essence and chives to taste, and add some water for dipping
