My dependence on this Sticky Chinese Barbecue Pork Belly is my spouses issue. Being a previous Hong Kong inhabitant, he acquainted me with Char Siu when we initially met… and it was love from the outset chomp (with the pork). Ordinarily, our New Years Eve custom comprises of heading off to a famous Yum Cha eatery here in Melbourne and requesting serve after serve of Char Siu.
Be that as it may, as life occurs, this year it's a no-go. Booked out so early, (or I may have left it a minute ago), I presently need to bring Char Siu into my home. Scorch Siu actually signifies "fork consume/cook" which is a reference to the customary readiness, speared with long forks and grilled over a fire.
Well. I have neither of those things nor would I like to light a fire in my home. Be that as it may, I have concocted an approach to make this securely in your own homes without the need of any fire quenchers.
The in addition to side is: A) We can eat triple what we typically do; and B) I can impart the formula to you.
Breaking out into a perspiration with a wrinkled temples, tossing fixings into a bowl and taste testing en route to attempt to coordinate the conventional and genuine eatery quality Char Siu sauce, I at last did it. It was a clear Hallelujah and Amen minute. After one (alright, progressively like four) tests and alterations, you can bring a delectably clingy Chinese pork formula into your kitchens!
