A simple Chinese dish that was taught to me when I was living in Taiwan.
Ingredients:
1 kg chicken breasts or 1 kg pork belly
4 cups water
1/2 cup soy sauce
100 g sugar
8 chinese star anise
6 hard-boiled eggs
Directions:
1. Cut the chicken or pork belly in to bite size pieces unless using bone in chicken.
2. In a large pot add the water, soy sauce, chinese star anise, sugar, and chicken.
3. Bring pot to the boil and skim off any scum.
4. Reduce to a low heat and let simmer for about 2 hours, adding more water and soy sauce if the flavour becomes weak. At about the 1 1/2 hour mark add the boiled eggs.
5. Serve with Hot Steamed Rice and Bok Choy.
