Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 onion, peeled and sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 2 pounds pork shanks or hocks, cut 2-inch thick
- 2 bay leaves
- ¼ teaspoon peppercorns, cracked
- 1 cup vinegar
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 2 cups water
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup dried banana blossoms (lily buds)
- salt to taste
Instructions
- In a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add garlic and onions and cook until softened.
- Add pork hocks and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned on all sides.
- Add vinegar and bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 2 to 4 minutes.
- Add soy sauce, water, bay leaves, and peppercorns.
- Lower heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 ½ to 2 hours or until meat starts to fall off the bone, adding more water in ½ cup increments as needed.
- Add sugar and banana blossoms. Continue to cook until blossoms are softened, meat is very tender and sauce is reduced and thickened.
- Season with salt to taste. Serve hot.
Notes
- Allow the vinegar to boil, uncovered and without stirring, for a few minutes to cook off the strong acid taste.
