Char Siu Pork With Noodles, Mushrooms And Hoisin

Ingredients

  • 500g boneless pork belly, cut into 6 pieces
  • 50g finely grated ginger
  • 50ml hoisin sauce
  • 100ml white wine or sherry
  • 50ml soy sauce

Method

Mix everything well together in a zippy bag and marinate for at least a day and up to 2 in the fridge.

Set oven to 200 oC.

Remove from marinade (keep it) and pat dry. Brush a hot pan with oil and heat until hot. Add the pork and seal off on both sides until fat is golden. Place in a baking dish and pour over the marinade. Cook for 30 minutes, turning twice and then rest for 10 minutes.

Heat a tablespoon of the oil in a large pan or wok and heat until smoking. Add the mushrooms, cook until golden and add the soy.
