Ingredients (to serve 2 pax):
400 grams of mince pork
1/4 cup light soy sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
1/2 tsp five spice powder
2 cups water
2 tbsps fried shallots or onions
1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water
Sugar to taste
Directions:
Mince pork and combine 1 tbsp of soy sauce and five spice powder for marination. Let it sit and marinade for 20 minutes.
Heat up 2 tbsp of oil with the onions on medium heat. When the onions start to sizzle a little, add in the mince pork for browning.
Once the mince pork is about 3/4 cooked, add in the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce and let the mince pork cook in the soy sauces for half a minute. Make sure it does not take any longer than half a minute or else the soy sauce will start to burn.
Add in 2 cups water and let it shimmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
Taste the gravy to make sure it has the right balance of saltiness and sweetness. Add in sugar if it is too salty.
Finally, stir in the cornstarch mixture. While doing this, make sure the heat is on high and the sauce is bubbling away.
When the gravy starts to thicken, it is ready to serve with a can of ready made braised peanuts and a Sunny side Up with Dark Soya Sauce Drizzled over!
