We love pork ribs with taucu too, then just need a bowl of rice to complete the meal :)

Kimmy said...

Hi Joyce, my hubby asked for more rice but there wasn't any cos' I wanted to enjoy the meat and not to overeat. I'll submit this post next week.

Kimmy said...

Hi Baby Sumo, yes just this dish with some salad and rice is good enough for a satisfying meal.

Wow, this looks really delicious. Love the use of the soya bean paste with the pork.

Kimmy said...

Hi Mich, the taucheo and nam yee blends very well. The rock sugar makes the sweetness perfect.
