Ingredients for cooking delicious braised pork
How to choose fresh, tasty ingredients
To make a delicious dish, the first step is to prepare fresh, clean ingredients and choose the freshest pieces of pork. The eggs must also be fresh and easy to peel so the dish is both tasty and good-looking.
How to choose fresh, tasty pork belly
• Choose fresh pork belly with a light pink color and lean meat interspersed with fat, so the pork is tender and not greasy when braised.
• To tell whether the pork is fresh, press it with your finger to check its elasticity; if the meat still springs back well, it is fresh.
• Do not buy meat with a pale color or that feels slimy to the touch.

How to choose fresh quail eggs
• Choose eggs with a hard shell that feels slightly rough to the touch; on fresh eggs the white spots are bright, not stained or turned grayish-brown or black.
• To check the freshness of the eggs, you can drop them into water; if an egg floats, it is rotten or spoiled and you should not buy it.
How to cook braised pork with quail eggs
Step 1. Prepare and marinate the pork
To remove any odor from the pork belly you have bought, wash it with diluted salt water or rice water, then rinse with clean water and drain. Next, use a knife to cut it into bite-sized pieces.
Wash the quail eggs too, then put them in a pot and boil for about 7 - 10 minutes until cooked. Once cooked, wait for the eggs to cool and peel them. Then rinse the eggs once more in clean water to remove any bits of shell still stuck to them.
Step 2: Marinate the pork
Put the pork in a bowl and marinate it with crushed and finely chopped shallots, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 1 spoon of seasoning powder, 1 spoon of chili sauce, 2 spoons of sugar, and ½ spoon of MSG. Mix all the seasonings well and leave the pork to marinate for 30 minutes so it absorbs the flavors. Wash the horn chili and spring onions and chop them finely for garnish.
To make the quail eggs more fragrant and richer, you should fry them until golden. While waiting for the pork to absorb the seasonings, put a pan of oil on the stove; when the oil is hot, drop in the quail eggs and fry over medium heat. When the eggs are evenly golden on both sides, remove them and drain the oil.

Step 3: Cook the braised pork with quail eggs
First, put a pan on the stove, add the marinated pork, and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until the pork firms up slightly, then transfer it to a braising pot. Next, add 1 bowl (rice bowl) of water to the pot to braise the pork.
When the pork comes to a boil, add the fried quail eggs and a little chopped chili to the pot. Braise over low heat for about 30 minutes until the pork is tender, then turn off the heat.
