Barbecue pork recipe 

500g lean pork. 

2 tbsp oyster sauce 

3 tbsp shaoxing cooking wine 

3 tbsp sesame oil 

3 tbsp sugar 

1/2 tsp 5 spice power 

1 tsp white pepper 

1 tbsp oil 

2 clove of garlic crushed with skin on. 

Preparation method :

1. In a bowl, add in all the marinade & marinate the meat overnight. 

2. Heat up the wok with oil, add in the garlic, fry until fragrant.  Add in the meat & marinade.

3. Using medium-low heat , slowly cook the meat. Cover with a lid & flipped occationally to avoid over burning. But I like it with some burnts sections. 

4. After 20 - 25 minutes turned up the heat, to thicken the sauce. You'll noticed the oil & the marinade separated. Refer to picture. 

5. Turned off the heat, when meat is fully cooked. Dish out the BBQ pork & leave it to cool slightly. Slice the BBQ pork before serving. 

Voilà & bon appétit !! 

Chin's notes:

1. No added salt / light soya sauce  is added because I find that the oyster sauce is quite salty. 

2. Normally food colouring is added to give the meat the reddish touch. You can add some red colouring if you wish. :)
