Instructions: Whisk together fish sauce, soy sauce, and sugar in a bowl until the sugar is dissolved completely. Add garlic, ginger, and pork and mix to coat meat evenly. Allow to marinate, refrigerated, turning the meat every hour, for 3 to 4 hours.

Put pork with marinade and pork stock in a clay pot, or heavy-bottomed pot, and bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, covered, for 1 1/2 hours.

Add bamboo shoots and continue to cook until meat is fork tender, about 1 hour more. Serve hot.
