Implementation Steps

Wash the pork and cut it into small bite-sized cubes. Season with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 2 tablespoons of sugar and marinate for about 15 minutes so the meat absorbs the flavour.
Mix 1/2 bowl of water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 2 tablespoons of light soy sauce.

Boil 3 eggs, then peel them. Add the eggs to the pork, add some pepper and stir again, then cook for a final 15 minutes and turn off the heat.

And there's our pot of thit kho tau. If you want a change, swap your usual braise for this soy sauce version – we guarantee the rice pot will be empty before you know it.
Turn off the heat once the meat is cooked, ladle it into a bowl and get ready to welcome the new year with the family. Thit kho tau with hot steamed rice is delicious and warming, soothing away the cold winter outside.
