The claypot of Bak Kut Teh also comes with generous portions of tau pok and mushrooms. But his favourite side & must-have is the small intestine braised in dark soya sauce. It tastes like it should – of innards – because they haven’t scrubbed everything inside away. What you get is tender, cushiony small intestines full of chew and flavour, because it’s also been cooked in a claypot, which locks in flavours well.
