Recently, someone bought us a box of roasted pork (siew yuk) but it was too tough since it was mostly composed of lean meat. I've stirred fried some but there were some left over as usually Capt'n Hook would have wallopped all. So with the remainder roasted pork and those that I've stirred fried, I decided to braise them in a slow cooker, hopefully the meat will tenderised along the way.
What I did was, place some potatoes at the bottom most, followed by leeks. As for the roasted pork, I drizzle some oyster sauce, dark soy sauce with a wee bit of water over them and mix them up. Place them on top of the leeks. Drizzle a bit of garlic oil all over. Turn on the slow cooker and cook for about 3 hours.
Thank goodness the slow cooking did the meat good making them tender and juicy. Ahhh the wonders of technology...
Here are my other ways of cooking using a slow cooker:

ReplyDeleteI need to get myself a slow cooker... it's the answer to all culinary conundrums! I think my parents used to do this... throw tough meat into the slow cooker and voila, some gorgeous stew will emerge hours later. Have potatoes, have meat, will conquer!
