I found the char sui pork recipe on the Tesco Real Food website when searching for a new recipe for pork belly slices.
Once the pork has been marinaded overnight, the end result is a delicious, rich and sticky Chinese glaze...the flavours infuse and then cooking is pretty quick. A great dish to make when preparing a Chinese feast, or enjoy with boiled rice and greens. I decided to use the remaining marinade to serve with the pork, rather than discarding it - I've added an extra instruction to simmer it while the pork is grilling.
Tip
- This char sui pork recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
