Tomato Hoof Flower Casserole

Tomato and pig's trotter casserole is very delicious and tasty. I often make it at home on weekends. Here is the specific method:

Tomatoes look good and have a "healthy, positive and passionate appearance", so tomatoes were originally grown for viewing, and they had to be viewed from a distance, because a long time ago, people believed that touching the branches, leaves or fruits of tomatoes would cause poisoning and death. Later, there are said to be more than 500 versions about who was the first person to eat tomatoes. However, that is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that after so many years of viewing and eating, tomatoes have finally become an indispensable fruit and vegetable in people's daily lives. Before the end of the 18th century, the Encyclopedia Britannica described tomatoes as: "A daily necessity, used in soups or broths, or as a garnish for cooking steaks."

Ingredients for tomato hoof flower stew:

2 pig's trotters and 3 or 4 large tomatoes.

Tomato Hoof Flower Casserole Seasoning:

Use appropriate amounts of cooking oil, salt, onion, ginger, sugar, tomato sauce, star anise and white wine.

Tomato Hoof Flower Casserole Method:

1. After cleaning the pig's trotter, blanch it twice in boiling water to thoroughly remove the blood foam, impurities and the unique fishy smell of the pig's trotter; 2. Put the casserole on the stove, add warm water to cover the pig's trotter, add scallion knots, ginger slices and a star anise, boil over high heat, pour in an appropriate amount of white wine, simmer over low heat until crispy, add an appropriate amount of salt to taste, remove, drain and cool; 3. Debone the still warm pig's trotter and tear it into small trotter flowers; 4. Wash the tomatoes, blanch them to remove the skin and cut them into small pieces; 5. Put the wok on the stove, heat it and add a little oil. After the oil is hot, add the tomato pieces and stir-fry until the juice comes out, then add a little tomato sauce and a spoonful of sugar, and continue to stir-fry until the tomatoes are soft and rotten into a sauce; 6. Put the trotter flowers and the fried tomato sauce into the previous casserole, continue to simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, then serve, sprinkle with a little coriander for flavor and decoration.

Kind tips:

1. Adding white wine during stewing can remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor;

2. When frying tomatoes, you can use less oil, because pig's trotters contain a lot of fat, so the soup will not be too greasy. Adding a little sugar can enhance the flavor.
