Malaysian Spiced Soy Braised Pork: Heat a 4 qt. (4 L.) saucepan over medium-low heat; add shallot mixture. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until raw aroma has dissipated. Add marinated pork (with any marinade); sachet of lemongrass, galangal, cinnamon and star anise. Add stock, bring to a boil, and then lower to simmer. Cook until pork is almost tender, about 1 hour. Adjust seasoning with soy sauce, sugar, and salt to taste. Remove sachet. Cool and transfer to container so pork is covered with liquid.
Day of Service: Remove 1 cup of simmering liquid to a separate pan. Add drained cooked soybeans and heat over medium heat. (It will be easier to serve equal portions if they are added from separate pan)
Sprouted Soybean Relish (1/4 cup per serving): Add cucumbers, chilies, rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Mix well, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Gently fold in basil. Reserve at room temperature.
