BBQ Pork aka Char Siew


Ingredients:
750g pork (shoulder/collar butt) ~ sliced
6 tbsp char siu sauce (Lee Kum Kee brand)
3 cloves garlic ~ finely minced
1 tbsp Shao Xing wine
2 tbsp honey + 1 tbs water

Directions:
  1. Add char siew sauce, rice wine & garlic with the pork & mix well until fully incorporated.  Cover with plastic wrap & marinate in the fridge overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 200 deg C.  Place aluminum foil onto the baking tray & lay the strips on top.  Brush a layer of the marinade onto the top of the strip's surface.  Place another aluminum foil on top & bake for 30 mins.  (Do not discard the marinated sauce!)
  3. Remove the tray from the oven, uncovered & turn the strips onto the other side.  Apply another layer of the marinade on each strip.  Cover the foil & place it back into the oven for another 20 mins.
  4. Remove the tray again from the oven, and discard the top foil paper.  Brush a layer of honey onto the surface of the trip.  Bake for 10 mins.
  5. Repeat step 4 (remember to turn the strip every time taking it out) until the honey has finished.
  6. Once the pork gradually turns red and has a charcoal appearance, it is completed.  Turn off the heat, and leave the BBQ pork to stand for 10 mins in the oven.  When cool down, slice & arrange.  Serve with steamed rice as desired.
