It pairs perfectly with rice, bread, or noodles.<br />Ingredients:<br /><br /> 500g pork (pork belly or pork shoulder)<br /> 1 tbsp oyster sauce<br /> 1 tbsp soy sauce<br /> 1 tbsp Chinese rose wine (or white cooking wine)<br /> 1 tbsp honey (or sugar)<br /> 1 tbsp chili sauce (or sate if you prefer it spicy)<br /> 1 tsp five-spice powder<br /> 1 tsp garlic powder (or minced garlic)<br /> 1/2 tsp black pepper<br /> 1/2 tsp salt<br /> 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)<br /><br />Instructions:<br /><br /> Marinate the pork:<br /> Clean the pork and cut it into long strips (about 3-4cm wide).<br /> Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and coat the pork evenly.<br /> Let it marinate for at least 2 hours (or overnight in the fridge for deeper flavor).<br /><br /> Cooking methods:<br /> Oven roasting: Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F). Roast for 30-40 minutes, flipping the pork every 15 minutes and basting with the marinade to keep it juicy.<br /> Pan-searing: Heat a pan, sear the pork over low heat, flipping frequently. Add a little water, cover with a lid, and let it simmer until the liquid reduces and the pork becomes caramelized.<br /><br /> Serving suggestions:<br /> Slice the pork into thin pieces and serve with steamed rice, bread, or noodles.<br /> Pair with cucumber, fresh herbs, and soy sauce with garlic & chili for extra flavor.<br /><br />Tips:<br /><br /> Pork belly for a fattier, juicier texture, or pork shoulder for a leaner option.<br /> Honey helps create a glossy, caramelized outer layer.<br /><br />Enjoy your Char Siu pork!
