MING TSAI RED ROAST PORK WITH BOK CHOY FONDUE (DAD)
Steps:
- Put all liquid ingredients and sugar in a tall stockpot and bring to a boil. Add pork and reduce heat. When boiling again, turn down to a simmer and skim off the 'scum'. Add the rest of the remaining ingredients, except cabbage. Taste for seasoning; it should be fairly sweet. If not, add more brown sugar. Remember that the taste of the braising liquid will ultimately be the taste of the pork, so make sure it tastes good! Simmer slowly for 6 to 8 hours, or until pork is very soft. Carefully remove the pork, place it on a large platter and cover with foil to keep hot. Strain the liquid and reduce until a syrupy consistency is achieved, this will take 20 to 30 minutes. In the last 10 minutes of reducing, add the bok choy to cook until soft. Place bok choy around the pork and glaze pork with reduction. Serve with side of sambal oelek.;

Steps:
- In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, whisk together the mirin, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, scallions, 1/4 cup of the vegetable oil and two-thirds of the garlic and ginger. Put the pork tenderloins in the marinade and turn to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Remove the pork from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off. Transfer the marinade to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil to reduce slightly, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, grill the pork, turning occasionally, until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloins reaches 145 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining ginger and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the bok choy along with 2 tablespoons water and cover. Steam until the bok choy is bright green and crisp-tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Serve alongside the sliced pork with the marinade sauce.

CITRUS-GLAZED PORK CHOPS WITH GINGERY BOK CHOY
Rich pork makes a perfect companion to tart oranges in this tasty weeknight meal. The bold, bright, citrusy sauce demands a robust cut of meat, so pick well-marbled, thick-cut pork chops with a nice fat cap. A dry rub of brown sugar creates a caramelized layer that lends depth to the pan sauce, and the gingery bok choy adds a delightful bit of freshness. This is quite a meal on its own, but you can steam some brown or white rice for a starchy side. Slice the pork to serve, and drizzle the pan sauce over everything.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the ginger and rice vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Trim the bok choy and cut into 3- to 4-inch pieces, if large, or cut down the middle lengthwise, if using baby bok choy. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the bok choy to the pan, cut-side down, if using baby bok choy, and sear on one side until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add additional oil, if necessary. Flip to cook on the other side until just tender, about 1 minute. Transfer bok choy to the ginger marinade and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Rub both sides of the pork chops with the brown sugar and season generously with salt. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium heat. Arrange chops and orange halves in the skillet, cut-side down. Sear one side of the pork (without moving it) until deep brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the pork but leave the orange undisturbed. Cook on medium-low until the pork is browned on both sides and the orange halves are charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Move the orange to a serving platter and the pork to a plate.
- Add the shallots and garlic to skillet and cook until softened and starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Add all the pork chops and any accumulated juices back to the pan, overlapping if necessary. Add the orange juice and 1/4 cup water. Bring the liquid to a simmer, swirling the pan to release any bits stuck to the bottom. Cover and cook for 3 minutes, then uncover and cook until the pork is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the cooked chops to a board and allow the sauce to continue cooking until reduced and sticky, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Transfer the bok choy to the serving platter. Slice the pork and transfer to the platter along with any accumulated juices from the meat. Spoon the pan sauce and squeeze the caramelized orange halves over the top.
Tips:
- Choose a pork roast with a good amount of marbling, as this will help keep it juicy during cooking.
- Sear the pork roast in a hot pan before roasting it in the oven. This will help create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
- Roast the pork roast at a high temperature for a short period of time, then reduce the temperature and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork roast rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Serve the pork roast with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Roast pork with bok choy is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The pork is juicy and flavorful, while the bok choy is tender and slightly sweet. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
