Instructions for making braised chicken feet:

Clean the chicken feet and pat dry. Heat oil in a pan and deep-fry over medium heat until golden brown and puffed up. Remove and drain the oil. Leave a small amount of oil in the pan, heat it up, then add the white part of scallions, fresh ginger, and garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant. Add some cooking wine, soy sauce, salt, sugar, star anise, a cup of beer, and enough water. Bring to a boil, then add the fried chicken feet. Simmer over medium heat for 40 minutes, then simmer over high heat to reduce the excess sauce.

The finished dish has a rich brown-red color, a mellow flavor, soft and tender texture, and an unforgettable aftertaste. Give it a try—you won’t be disappointed.
