Provided by Maggie Wong

Categories Dinner

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3 pork shoulder steaks (choose fattier steaks, if possible)
cooked jasmine rice and steamed pak choi, to serve
1 spring onion, finely sliced, to serve
2 tbsp hoisin sauce (you can also use oyster sauce, but you'll need more honey as it's less sweet)
1⁄2 cube red bean curd from a can, plus 3 tsp sauce from the can
1⁄2 tsp light soy sauce
1⁄2 tsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp Shaohsing rice wine (Chinese cooking wine)
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
6 tbsp honey

Steps:

First, make the marinade. Whisk the hoisin sauce, red bean curd (along with the sauce from the can), the soy sauces, rice wine, garlic and 3 tbsp honey together. Tip half into a large bowl with the pork, reserving the rest of the marinade for basting later. Season the pork, toss to coat and chill for 5 hrs to marinate.
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Transfer the pork to a roasting tin and roast for 30 mins.
Meanwhile, mix the remaining marinade with the rest of the honey. Brush over the pork every 10 mins, so it's evenly coloured. Serve with the rice and pak choi, and the spring onions scattered over.

Provided by Jeremy Pang

Categories Dinner, Main course

Time 4h45m

Yield Makes enough for 18 bao buns

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

700g rindless pork belly
4 fat garlic cloves, finely chopped
thumb-sized piece ginger, peeled and finely chopped
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
4 tbsp hoisin sauce
4 tbsp golden caster sugar
2 tbsp dark soy sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp sunflower oil
Pickled carrot & mooli (see 'Goes well with')
4-5 spring onion, thinly sliced on the diagonal
6 tbsp wasabi mayonnaise (or 6 tbsp mayo mixed with 1 tsp wasabi paste)

Steps:

Put the pork in a roasting tin, tip over all the marinade ingredients and massage it in with your fingers (or use a spoon) to coat the pork. Cover and chill overnight.
Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Cover the tin with foil and cook the pork for 31/2 hrs, basting every hour. Increase the oven temperature to 180C/160C/gas 4, remove the foil, baste the pork and continue to cook for 45 mins until it is beginning to caramelise around the edges.
Remove the pork from the tin and set aside to rest for 20 mins. Meanwhile, spoon away any fat from the tin and transfer the sauce to a small pan. Slice the pork - it will fall apart as you cut into it - then return to the tin. Warm the sauce in the pan, then pour over the meat and toss everything together. Spoon into the hot buns with the Pickled carrot & mooli, spring onions and a dollop of wasabi mayonnaise.

In a small-sized bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients to make the marinade. Use a fork or a whisk to thoroughly incorporate the bean curd in the sauce. Reserve half of the marinade in another glass container, you will use this for the basting sauce later.
In a container, combine the pork strips and marinade making sure every side of the meat is thoroughly covered. Cover with a lid and marinate in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight. Halfway in the marinating process, make sure to turn the meat so that all sides get an even amount of marinating.
Remove the pork from the fridge at least 30 minutes before baking to bring the meat into room temperature; This will help to evenly cook the meat throughout.
