Notes
1. Salt is not needed in this recipe because the duck eggs provide saltiness.
2. Coarsely ground pork gives a better texture to this dish. If this is unavailable, cut up some pork and pulse it in a food processor, alternatively use a chopping knife and coarsely mince the pork on a chopping board.
3. Traditionally this dish uses slightly fatty pork, 70/30 lean to fat ratio, but a good healthier alternative is to season lean pork mince with some beaten egg and a little cooking oil.
4. Salted duck eggs vary a lot in saltiness, so taste before adding all the sauce.
