Char Siu Pork Recipe Learn like a Chef
This simple Char Siu Pork recipe recreates Chinese barbeque magic. Sticky texture and deep, crimson colour make this dish crave-worthy, especially when you learn the marinade's simplicity.
– 2 pounds pork tenderloin
– 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
– 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
– 2 teaspoons five-spice powder
– 2 teaspoons sesame oil
– 3 cloves garlic
– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Ingredient
1
Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl. For that trademark red colour, add a couple drops of red food colouring.
2
Cut pork shoulder into long strips or chunks, whatever you choose! Put the meat in a big bag or dish.
3
Pour marinade over meat, coating each piece. Mix well and refrigerate. Marinate for at least 4 hours, but overnight for the best flavour!
4
Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the marinated pork slices on a rack over a baking dish with space between them for even cooking.
5
Use the remaining marinade to baste the pork! Bake the pork for 25–30 minutes, rotating and basting with remaining marinade every 10 minutes.
6
An appealing caramelization on the exterior is what you want. To give the pork a little more sear, broil it for the final two to three minutes.
7
After cooking, give the Char Siu ten minutes or so to rest. Cut it into pieces, add sesame seeds and green onions for garnish, and enjoy!
