Ingredients

  • 6-8 boiled eggs, peeled
  • 1.5-2 lbs pork, cut into chunky cubes
  • fish sauce
  • soy sauce
  • pepper, salt
  • 1-1.5 cups sugar
  • bamboo shoots, rectangular/ squarely sliced thin

Directions

1

Bring about 3-4 cups of water to a roaring boil

2

Add enough soy sauce to make a dark brown color

3

Add a couple dashes of pepper

4

Add a dash of salt

5

Add sugar until sweet (the soup, not you!)

6

Add enough fish sauce to taste (usu about 1.4 cup)

7

Add about 5-7 tbps of soy sauce

8

At this point you should be smelling a very beautifull smell. The soup should taste sweet, but not so sweet you can't taste the tinge of fish sauce you added.

9

Add the boiled eggs to the soup, let boil for about 15 minutes then add the cubed pork.

10

Add Bamboo slices to soup and let boil on medium for about 30 minutes.

11

You should notice that the eggs are taking up a shiny delicatable brown color.

12

The soup should smell slightly different. When eggs are a nice brown color, the soup is ready to serve.
