Method
- To make the broth: In a slow cooker, cover meat/bones with water and simmer for 60 min before skimming impurities off the top. Add halved onion, chicken stock powder, jar of lemongrass and pineapple pieces, shrimp paste. Slow cook on low for up to 8 hours. Set aside the bones and meat and strain the broth. Add the salt, sugar and fish sauce to the broth. When cool pull the tender meat off the bone for serving.
- To make the aromatics, heat a saucepan with oil on medium heat. Add annatto seeds and cook until red colour is released (~2 min). Strain off the seeds and add the chopped garlic and shallots to the oil until golden. Add this mix to the broth.
- To make the sate, blitz the garlic, shallots and lemongrass in a small food blender. Heat oil in saucepan on low and add the blended mix plus chilli flakes, sugar, salt and fish sauce and cook on low for 15 min. Set aside until serving.
- To prepare the bowl: Cook the noodles as per the packet instructions. To a large bowl add the noodles and sliced meat as well as slices of pork loaf. Ladle over the broth and top with a spoonful of sate, sliced red onion and lettuce leaves and bean-shoots. Enjoy!
