Braised Pork and Fresh Oysters in Clay Pot

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

MARINADE
Marinating:  Combine marinade ingredients in bowl large enough to hold
pork, mixing well. Add pork, cover, and marinate at room temperature for 1
hour.
Braising:  Drain pork, taking care to remove pieces of garlic. Heat oil in
wok until it begins to smoke. Fry pork cubes, a few at a time, until brown
and crusty. Do this quickly to sear meat without cooking it through. Drain
in Chinese strainer or on paper towel. Strain and reserve cooking oil. Clay
Pot:  In cool clay pot, combine water, bean sauce, dark soy, minced ginger,
dried orange peel, and sherry. Bring to boil, then add braised pork cubes.
Reduce heat, cover pot, and simmer for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, wash and trim
green onions, cut into 2" sections. Drain oysters. When pork has simmered
30
minutes, add onions and oysters. You can stop the dish before adding
oysters and onion. Cover and cook at medium heat for 15 minutes more. Turn
up to boil, dribble in cornstarch paste to make light gravy. Serve with
garnish of parsley.

“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
