Ingredients:
- 2 lbs pork shoulder, cut into chunks
- 1 cup fermented bamboo shoots, rinsed and drained
- 1 onion, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Alright, now that we have all our ingredients, let’s get to the magic!
Instructions:
- First things first, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chunks and brown them on all sides. This step is crucial for locking in that flavor!
- Once the pork is browned, transfer it to a slow cooker. In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and ginger. Sauté them till they soften and get all aromatic.
- Now, pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Mix it all up, scraping up any delicious bits stuck to the pan. That’s flavor right there!
- Pour this mixture over the pork in the slow cooker. Toss in the fermented bamboo shoots and the chicken broth. Stir it all together.
- Put the lid on your slow cooker and let it work its magic on low for about 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender and juicy. Can you smell it already?
- Once it’s done, give it a good stir and check for seasoning. Maybe a little more soy sauce or pepper to your liking!
- Serve it up hot, garnished with some chopped green onions, and watch your family dive in with big smiles on their faces.
