Braised Pork Leg with Tausi

Braised Pork Leg with Tausi
Braised Pork Leg with Tausi is an alternative cooking method should you do not fancy or like the vinegary taste of paksiw na pata. I have not used vinegar for this recipe, instead the pork leg slices were slow cooked or braised with soy sauce, sugar and with star anise, as a final ingredient the braised pork leg was topped with salted black beans or tausi. The recipe is more like a Chinese style braised pork salty sweet and with that familiar aroma of star anise.
