I made another dish for the potluck party this year: braised egg. It is another simple easy dish. I purposely buy the smaller size egg because it will be easier to make it flavorful.
I use same kind of sauce for braised duck, pork and any other kind of meat for eggs. Here is the link:

Cook the eggs in the boiling water for 10 minutes, then peel the shells. add the eggs to the sauce and bring the sauce to boil, then turn the heat down continue to simmer for 30 minutes. Leave the eggs in the sauce for a few hours or overnight for best result( no need to refrigerate it), the next day take the eggs out of the sauce. The secret to this dish is to save the leftover sauce every time you braise something and keep the sauce in the freezer, and the next time when you want to braise something else add the sauce from before, the flavor will get better and better every time! ( shhh… Don’t tell anyone) It is also very good to mix noodles with this sauce. Yummy
