Ingredients for HongShao anything:
Any meat, sugar, ginger, shallot, garlic, star anise, soy sauce, dark soy sauce

Steps:
1. Heat up one tablespoon of oil with five or six tablespoon of white sugar. Stir constantly on low fire, till sugar caramelised.
2. Quickly toss in the meat. Coat each pieces of meat well with caramelised sugar.
3. Add hot water enough to cover the meat.
4. Toss in ginger, shallot, garlic, star anise, soy sauce, dark soy sauce.
5. Turn to low heat, cover. Might take up to an hour or more, depends on what you cook.
