Thịt kho tàu is a traditional dish of braised and caramelized pork belly with eggs. It's made with a combination of pork belly, garlic, shallots, soy sauce, sugar, fish sauce, and hard-boiled eggs. The braising liquid usually consists of oil, garlic, shallots, and coconut water. The meat is sliced, parboiled, then marinated in fish sauce, sugar, onions, and soy sauce. Later on, it's simmered with aromatic herbs, the braising liquid, and eggs until tender. Once done, the dish is usually served with rice or dua chua (pickled mustard greens) on the side. Thịt kho tàu is especially popular during Tet (Vietnamese New Year), but it's also commonly cooked at home.
