Ingredients 1.4 Kg Pork Butt or Belly w/o Skin (preferably with a little fat attached) 200 g Granulated Sugar 1 ½ Tbsp Rose Cooking Wine (Mei Kuei Lu Chiew) 3 Tbsp Dark Caramel Sauce or Dark Soy Sauce 5 to 6 Tbsp Maltose mixed with ½ cup of warm water or Honey Sweet Sauce 6 Tbsp Soy Sauce 5 Tbsp Dark Caramel Sauce or Dark Soy Sauce 3 Tbsp Sugar 2 Tbsp Hoisin Sauce ¼ Cup Water Method Cut the pork butt into 2 to 2 ½ -inch strips. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cooking wine, and dark caramel sauce. Marinate the pork for at least 6 hours or overnight. Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Let the pork come to a room temperature. Place the pork on the rack of a roasting pan. Roast the pork for about 35-40 and baste with the remaining marinate every 8 to 10 minutes. When the meat is just beginning to char, brush with some maltose solution or honey, and roast until the meat is lightly char, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the meat from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. For the sauce: Bring the sauce to a boil and let simmer until the sauce has a thicker consistency. Serve warm. Serves 8 |
