Chinese Recipe : Shredded Pork with Fermented Beancurd (Appetizer)

This is an Eastern Chinese recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsps lard
• ¼ cup fermented bean curd
• 1 lb pork tenderloin, cut into small cubes
• 2 tbsps dry sherry
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 ¼ cups stock

Directions:

1. Melt the lard in a saucepan. Add the fermented bean curd and stir fry for 30 seconds. Add the pork, sherry, soy sauce, sugar and stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally to break up the meat into small pieces.
2. Transfer to a large frying pan or wok. Cook over a very low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to separate the meat fiber. This process will take 1 ½ to 2 hours, by which time all the juice will have evaporated, and the meat fibers will be fluffy and wooly. Place the meat on a sheet of greaseproof paper or non-stick parchment to cool. Serve as part of an hors d'oeuvre.
