About

Akin to the preceding recipe, this one and its Japanese variation use additional liquid. This, plus the braising time, makes for a saucier dish that can be stretched, with white rice, to serve more people if you like. But in any case, it’s delicious. for information on Asian fish sauces like nam pla.

Other cuts of meat you can use here: boneless chicken.
