RECIPES FOR CHINESE ROAST PORK RECIPES

Steps:

• First day preparation:
• To make the marinade, combine the first 8 ingredients in a freshly-sanitized plastic container just large enough to hold the pork snug - or - in a Ziploc plastic bag. Reserve 1/4 cup of marinade for glaze. Add the pork, turn well to coat, and refrigerate at least 24 hours and not longer than 48 hours.
• Second day preparation:
• Preheat oven to 450°F Set a pan filled with 1" water on the bottom rack.
• Combine the honey, 2 Tbs. soy, sesame oil, and 1/4 cup pork marinade in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Set aside.
• Place pork strips on broiler pan and put on rack above water pan. Roast 10 minutes.
• Brush with 1/3 of the glaze, roast 10 minutes more, and then lower the heat to 350°F
• Brush with half of remaining glaze and roast 10 minutes more.
• Brush with remaining glaze and turn off oven. Remove from oven after 5 minutes and cool to room temperature on a rack (if using for Bao; otherwise, serve it up!).

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl, mix well, add pork, toss to coat, refrigerate several hours or over night.
• Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius, drain pork, reserving marinade.
• Place pork in an oven proof dish, roast uncovered, for about 50 Min’s or until browned and cooked through. Brush pork several times with reserved marinade whilst cooking.
• Let pork stand for 5-10 Min’s before slicing.
