Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- 500g minced pork (or chicken) preferably with some fats on
- 100g thinly sliced shallot (or red onion)
- 3 tbsp Bull Head shallot sauce
(A) Sauce
- 200 ml water add more if needed
- 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tbsp fish sauce
- few dashes white pepper powder
- few drops Maggi seasoning when the dish is done optional
Directions:
- Cook mince pork. Heat oil in a wokpan. Add minced pork, spreading them one layer in the pan. Let the meat brown slightly on its own, then stir-fry the meat, breaking the mince to smaller pieces with the spatula as you do so.
- Add shallots as soon as the minced pork is cooked on the surface. Stir fry briskly until the shallots start to soften.
- Add shallot sauce and stir fry until the meat is evenly coated in the sauce.
- Simmer. Add sauce (A). When the sauce starts to bubble, cover with lid and simmer for about 10 minutes. Top up with more water if needed, and season to taste.
- Meal prep tips. Let the sauce cool down completely before storing in a tightly-lid food container. It keeps well in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also add some cooked eggs to soak in the sauce. The sauce & fats will solidify in the fridge – just use a metal spoon to scoop out what you need, and reheat in the microwave or stove top until warmed & liquid again.

I need to look out for some shallot sauce to try. Have never seen or had it before. We eat lots of minced meat..This can be our favourite too.
Hi may i know is the shallot sauce spicy?
There is chilli listed in the ingredients, but I personally barely tasted any heat from this sauce.
This 牛头牌 brand is famous – the shallot sauce, and I think the sacha sauce too.
