Char Siu


Recipe from Kirbie Cravings.

Ingredients
2 lbs pork
3 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 1/2 tbsp honey
1/4 cup sugar
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp cooking Chinese wine
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp 5 spice powder
3 drops red food color
honey for brushing

Directions
1. Combine all seasoning together to form a thick sauce. Then put with pork in a large container. (You may want to cut pork to smaller pieces first to make it easier to cook with. I cut mine into 4 pieces.) Marinate pork for a few hours or overnight in fridge. I marinated overnight.
2. Heat oven to 375 F.Prepare a baking tray with aluminum foil over it.Place marinated pork on the baking tray, bake pork for 30 minutes,then turn the other side,bake for another 30 minutes. Pork should be just about done.
3. Change setting to broil at 400F, roast the pork for another 10-15 minutes or until the top develops a slightly charred look.
4. Remove roast pork from oven,brush with honey to give a glossy shine look. Cut and serve as appetizer or main dish.
