Chinese Roast Pork

By DWatkins23

I got this recipe for Chinese Roast Pork from my sister Sharyn... Don't know where she got it, but the family LOVES it. I use it to make a chinese friend rice and serve some of the pork as an add-on

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 lb Pork Tenderloin slice 3/4"-1" thick
• 1/4 t salt
• 1/4 c sugar
• 1 1/2 T Soy
• 1 1/2 t Oyster Sauce
• 1/4 t sesame oil
• 1 T White or Rose wine Vinegar (can also use Mirin sweet rice wine)
• 1-1 " piece of Ginger peeled/minced
• 1 1/2 t Hoisin Sauce
• 1 T Chinese Bean Paste
• 1 cl garlic
• 1/4 honey
• Red Food Coloring (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all ingredients except pork, honey and red food coloring in a large ziploc bag... Trick is to put ziploc inside a large measuring cup then it's easy to put all the ingredients in the bag... once mixed, add sliced pork, seal and marinate at least 4 hours to overnight (better).

Preheat oven to 425 deg
Line cookie sheet with foil and put a rack in pan (like cookie cooling rack)
Arrange pork on rack so it's not touching
Bake 15 min
turn over bake 7 min
mix honey and red food coloring (add drops until it's pretty red) Take pork out of the oven and brush all pieces, all sides with honey food coloring mix return to oven and bake 10 minutes

Note: food coloring helps pork look like it does in chinese fried rice and makes it less boring brown but it's not required if you don't want to...
