‘Char Siu’ Baked Pork
I used to cook this Baked Pork using a store-bought ‘Char Siu’ Sauce. I usually boil chunky pieces of Pork until soft, marinate them with the sauce, then bake until browned. However, I didn’t have the ‘Char Siu’ Sauce today!!! I thought I had it!!! With no other choice, I made up a sauce adding more Sugar than I wished to use. The result was fantastic. I won’t buy the ‘Char Siu’ Sauce again as this sauce is easy to make and more delicious than the store-bought one.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut Pork Block into very large chunky pieces. *Note: Be aware they will shrink a lot.
- 2
Boil for 1 hour. If you use a pressure cooker, it would take 20 to 30 minutes.
*Note: It is your choice to add Salt to water, but I didn’t. I added Spring Onion and some thin slices of Ginger for flavour.
- 3
Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a large container OR bowl, add hot boiled Pork pieces, coat each piece very well, cover with a lid OR plastic food wrap, and set aside for 2-3 hours at least. *Note: Leave them in the fridge if required.
- 4
*Note: DO NOT waste the water that was used to boil the Pork. You can use it to make a soup.
- 5
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper OR foil if you wish to do so. Cleaning would be easier if you lined the tray.
- 6
Place drained Pork pieces on the baking tray, and bake for 10 minutes. Take the tray out, brush the sauce over the Pork pieces, then bake for 5 minutes. Take out, brush the sauce, and bake for 5 minutes. Repeat until nicely browned. *Note: Today I brushed the sauce 4 times.

Absolutely Delicious! Authentic Char Siu Absolutely Delicious! Authentic Char Siu
I saw how to make this authentic dish on TV, and tried making it my own style.Char siu is all about roasting. If you boil it, it will be boiled pork. The key to delicious roasted pork is the surprisingly sweet sauce! It's best to use block shoulder roast. Also, I recommend marinating for as long as possible. I usually let it marinate for 2-3 days.The recipe gives enough sauce to marinate 1kg of block meat. For 4 servings. Recipe by kuisinbou

Char Siu Pork And Simmered Eggs Char Siu Pork And Simmered Eggs
I watched my mother making this and just copied her, but she uses the pork shoulder (butt), maybe because of the calories? I, on the other hand, prefer to use pork belly.It's more convenient to divide the pork into small pieces before freezing.The char siu is already flavored well when it's done cooking, so you can take it out of the simmering liquid to cool. The eggs will be well flavored after marinating in the simmering liquid for an hour. Recipe by SKYDRIVE -

My Simmered Pork Recipe- Easy Char Siu in a Pressure Cooker My Simmered Pork Recipe- Easy Char Siu in a Pressure Cooker
I used a 2.5 liter pressure cooker. Storebought char siu pork has preservatives that I worry about, so I make my own instead. I poach the meat in sake to prevent it from becoming tough, and use as little soy sauce as possible in the seeping sauce.Brown the meat to seal in the juices.If you poke the meat several times with a skewer before putting in the bag, the sauce flavors will penetrate well.The flavors will blend easily if you put the bag with the meat in a bowl and turn it over occasionally.

Sublime Tender Char Siu for Ramen Sublime Tender Char Siu for Ramen
Cooking ramen is one of my hobbies, so I'm also very interested in making char siu. This is the best recipe I've come up with for char siu so far.The most important thing for making good char siu is to leave it submerged in the broth. To prepare a big piece of meat, you need a lot of ingredients, but if you cook it together with chicken breast, it uses up some of the space and broth, so there is less waste.

Black Tea Char Siu Pork Black Tea Char Siu Pork
I learned this recipe from my mother. I make it every year around the end of the year and during the New Years holiday, when we have a lot of guests so I have enough to feed them.Since I add whatever leftover bits of vegetables I have around to the simmering liquid, the flavor changes every time I make it.A block of pork from the leg is easy to cook. This time, I used two 400 g pieces of pork from the loin (roast), so I tied them both together using more twine than usual.Since the pork cools down faster in the winter, I recommend making this in the wintertime.You can use cheap soy sauce - it will be fine. For 10 servings. Recipe by Suzuechan to mago
