Homemade Char Siu aka Char Siew aka Chinese BBQ Pork

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 kg pork belly
• 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 2.5 tbsp manuka honey
• 2 tbsp light soy sauce
• 2 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp Chinese wine

  Huatiao wine
• 1 tsp five spice powder

Instructions

• 1 Prep the marinade sauce and mix well into a consistent sauce. Set aside a
  smaller portion of the sauce for basting the meat during cooking.
• 2 Marinate the meat with the marinade sauce evenly, cover up and place in fridge
  chiller for at least 8 hours.
• 3 Take marinated meat out from fridge one hour before cooking.
• 4 Pre-heat oven to 200 degree celsius.
• 5 Place meat spaced out on a baking rack. I'd cover the baking tray with aluminium
  foil and fill it with about 1 cup of water as the marinade sauce with sip
  through and burn because of the sugar content.
• 6 Bake for 20 mins in the oven. Flip the meat halfway through the bake.
• 7 Baste the meat with the remaining portion of the marinade sauce evenly.
• 8 Bake for 10-12 min more. Once done, take it out of the oven and let it rest for
  about 15 minutes.
