   Step 3

   Boil the eggs over high heat, then remove them, peel them, and put them back in the pot. Add white sugar (to taste, or other sugars can be substituted) and soy sauce (to taste), stir well, and continue to cook over high heat, stirring occasionally. Because of the sugar, be careful not to let the mixture burn.

   Step 4

   Bring to a boil over high heat until the sauce has almost reduced, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring once or twice (because the sauce is almost gone and it's easy to burn the bottom). Continue cooking until the sauce thickens, then turn off the heat and stir a few times. Your sweet and delicious braised pork is ready!
