I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

How to make Chinese BBQ Pork




    How to make Chinese BBQ Pork

    BBQ Pork Caramel Sauce : - 4 tbsp maltose - 2 tbsp honey - 1 tsp hoisin sauce - 1 tbsp sweet soy sauce - 1 tsp Chinese five spice powder - 1 tbsp Chinese rose wine ( OR regular - shaoxing wine ) - white pepper - sesame oil - salt to taste

    Prep for BBQ Pork Caramel Sauce : 1) To avoid sticking or burning onto the pan, cook all ingredients on a double boiler on medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, let it cool down and then set aside.

    BBQ Pork : - 1 tsp minced garlic - 1 tsp minced shallot - 2 lbs+ pork belly ( OR use pork loin OR pork shoulder) - caramel sauce

    BBQ Pork : Method : 1) Fork the pork belly and rub the minced ingredients all over the meat. 2) Marinade the pork bellies with half to two thirds of a portion of the prepared caramel sauce over the meat, and then set aside for at least 20 minutes. ( preferably overnight ) 3) Pan fry the marinated meat over medium-high heat until both sides are nicely browned, cover and let it cook on medium-low heat for an additional 20-30 minutes. 4) Baste some glaze over the meat 5 minutes before finish time. 5) Pour the remaining caramel sauce over the meat, before of after cutting the meat into serving size.

    Personally, I prefer my Chinese BBQ Pork with egg noodles tossed with the BBQ Pork caramel sauce. But its always great with plain white rice, fried rice, or as bun stuffings.
