This immensely popular herbal version of Bak Kut Teh is commonly found in Klang. Just looking at the colour of the soup, you can already tell the difference between this and the clear, peppery, garlicky version we made previously.

This time round, we used prime ribs which is cooked to fall- off-the-bone tenderness. The addition of pork maw not only adds more flavour. When cooked, it also absorbs all the herbal goodness. Best served when the pork maw is soft yet still slightly Q.

Claypot is highly recommended as it gives this dish beautiful textures and flavours!
