CHINESE ROAST PORK (CHAR SIU)
Sweet, delicious roast pork. Recipe adapted from my chef's version at culinary school. If you follow all the steps, it's the best char siu you'll ever have. I am usually "lazy" and use the marinade on a pork roast, then glaze it at the end.

- Heat the vegetable oil in a large, ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat. Remove the pork tenderloins from the marinade and sear on all sides in the hot pan. Baste the pork with the remaining marinade throughout the cooking process.

Tips:
- When choosing a pork belly, look for one with a good amount of fat and meat. The fat will help to keep the pork moist and flavorful while it roasts.
- If you don't have time to marinate the pork belly overnight, you can marinate it for a few hours or even just 30 minutes. However, the longer you marinate it, the more flavorful it will be.
- When roasting the pork belly, be sure to place it on a rack so that the fat can drip off. This will help to prevent the pork from becoming greasy.
- Roast the pork belly until it is cooked through but still slightly pink in the center. The internal temperature should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork belly rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
Conclusion:
Marinated Chinese roast pork is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. If you are looking for a new and exciting recipe to try, this is definitely one that you should consider.
