-Gently fry the onion, garlic and oil in the saucepan until the onion becomes softens.

-Then add the ground cinnamon, mix spices, mace, nutmeg and stir for further 5 minutes.

-Put the pork belly, soft brown sugar, ground black pepper and fish sauce in the same saucepan. Stir and gently fry for further 10 minutes.

-Add 600 ml of water, white sugar, dark soy sauce, cinnamon stick and star anises. Bring it to boil and simmer for further 2.30 hours. Stir occasionally. Add a little more water if required.

-Sprinkle chopped coriander and a pinch of salt.

-Serve this comforting stew with boiled eggs and Thai jasmine rice. Just like how my grandma like it.

Tips:

-The real old grandma style often add the hard boil eggs in the same pot and simmer with all the ingredients.

-If you can find the coriander roots, feel free to add them into the pot. It will create a great depth for this dish.
