Ingredients

1	pound	pork	leg, fresh
1	tablespoon	vegetable oil
1	teaspoon	salt
2	each	scallions, spring or green onions
1	dash	black pepper
1	tablespoon	fish sauce

Directions

Cut the fresh ham into several chunks about 1 1/2 to 2 inches square.

Chop the green onion fine. Heat the oil in 2 quart pot, then add the onion and the remaining ingredients, including the pork.

Saute, stirring, on medium heat until the meat is brown (about 5 minutes or more).

Add 4 cups water and simmer, uncovered, on medium heat for one hour.

Add the fish sauce and continue to simmer on medium heat 1 more hour.

Most of the water will be absorbed by the meat and the remainder will be slightly thick--or carmelized.

Be careful not to burn it.

Serve hot as a main dish, with lots of rice.

This has a very long life--it may be frozen, refrigerated, reheated, and served as an appetizer, etc.

Roasted Squash and Fennel with Thyme

This is an excellent recipe, we used zuccini instead of the summer squash, tasted great, the fennel added the very nice flavours, we love garlic, we used more garlic, great!
