ASIAN STUFFED EGGPLANT WITH HAWAIIAN-STYLE PORK (OR TURKEY) HASH



Asian Stuffed Eggplant With Hawaiian-Style Pork (Or Turkey) Hash image

This is a dish that combines two things that I really like... eggplant and pork hash. Pork Hash in Hawaii brings back memories of the hunabutta days (childhood) when the man in the manapua (steamed Chinese bun) man would come around and sell his wares, kind of like the ice-cream man in the states. But instead of getting ice-cream, one could get pork hash, half moon, manapua, fried noodles, candies, almond cookies and other stuff. Pork Hash is kind of like a meatball wrapped in a won ton wrapper. It is usually served with chinese mustard mixed with soy sauce. Coleman's dry mustard mixed with soy sauce is a close approximation, and is the recommended accompaniment to this dish. You could also use a chinese black bean sauce or a sweet and thick teriyaki sauce. Good eating!

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 4 piece, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb ground pork or 1 lb ground turkey
2 large eggs
5 stalks green onions, greens only, minced
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, minced
4 garlic cloves
1/2 tablespoon ginger powder
1 tablespoon pepper
1 tablespoon sesame oil
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons sugar

12 pieces round wonton wrappers (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut a wedge out of the eggplant. Stuff the pork mixture into the newly created pocket. (I always overstuff).
  • If desired, put the wedge back on top of the eggplant.
  • ***NOTE***There will be alot of stuffing left over. This can be made into "pork hash" burgers or made into pork hash. To make pork hash, place about 1 tablespoon of the mixture on to the middle of a wrapper. Wrap up the sides, leaving the top open and unsealed.
  • Put stuffed eggplant and pork hash into a steamer, and steam for about 30 minutes.
  • Serve with soy sauce mixed with dry powdered mustard, or sweet and thick teriyaki sauce or chinese black bean sauce.

HAWAIIAN ROASTED PORK



Hawaiian Roasted Pork image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h15m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 boneless pork rump roasts, about 3 pounds each
3 tablespoons Hawaiian or coarse salt
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1/2 cup guava jam, prepared
2 tablespoons Macadamia nut oil
1 teaspoon of water, plus 1/2 cup
10 banana leaves, wet
1 stalk sugar cane, split in half lengthwise
1 tablespoon all-natural liquid smoke flavoring

Steps:

  • Season the pork roasts all over with salt and pepper. Prepare an outdoor barbecue by soaking mesquite wood chips in water and adding to the coals for added flavor. Sear the pork on the hot grill to lock in the natural juices. Whisk together guava jam, oil, and 1 teaspoon of water. Season with fresh cracked pepper. Rub the pork with guava paste. Set 2 wide pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil on a flat surface. Lay 5 banana leaves on each piece of foil in a crisscross pattern, then place the pork roasts on top. Fold the banana leaves up around the roasts to make a bundle. Insert a sugar cane spear through the banana leaves and into the pork to secure. Tent the foil over the roasts and seal 3 of the sides to form a pouch. Mix liquid smoke and remaining water together in a small bowl, pour it into the pouch. Close up the remaining edge of foil to lock in the moisture and flavor. Transfer back to the hot grill. Roast for 2 1/2 to 3 hours with the grill cover down. When the pork is cool enough to handle, shred using 2 forks.

Categories     Pork

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

5-6 lb pork but or sholder
4 Tbsp hawiian or coarse sea salt
4 Tbsp liquid smoke flavoring
ti leaves, banana leaves, or spinach leaves to cover pork
2 c apple cider or water

Steps:

  • 1. Cut small slits, about 1 to 1-1/2 inches in length, all along the surface of the pork. Rub the pork with Hawaiian or coarse sea salt then with liquid smoke.
  • 2. Lay out a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, and place leaves on top. Place pork on leaves and wrap them around the pork. Cover with remaining leaves until pork is completely covered. Wrap the foil tightly around the pork to make a seal.
  • 3. Place roast in a slow cooker with apple cider or water. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.
  • 4. Remove meat from slow cooker. Allow it to rest for 15 minutes then shred adding drippings if needed to keep the meat moist.
  • 5. You can add vegetables, water, and some of the shredded pork to the stock for a nice soup.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are the best cuts for Hawaiian pork, as they are flavorful and have a good amount of fat.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives Hawaiian pork its signature flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains a combination of salty, sweet, and sour ingredients.
  • Cook the pork slowly: Hawaiian pork is traditionally cooked in a slow cooker or oven. This allows the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the pork and results in a tender and juicy dish.
  • Serve Hawaiian pork with traditional sides: Hawaiian pork is often served with rice, macaroni salad, and a side of pineapple. These sides complement the flavors of the pork and make for a complete and satisfying meal.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for a casual meal with friends and family, or it can be dressed up for a special occasion. Whether you are a seasoned cook or a beginner, you can easily make Hawaiian pork at home with the help of this guide.
