Provided by Robert Farrar Capon

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 6h45m

Yield Enough for several meals serving 3 to 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds boneless lean pork (pork tenderloin, boned butt or shoulder, or boned fresh ham)
1 tablespoon brown bean sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken stock or water
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 teaspoon sherry

Steps:

  • Cut pork into neat billets about 6 by 3 by 1 1/2 inches and place in bowl. Put brown bean sauce, garlic, stock, salt, sugar, soy sauce and tomato paste in small saucepan and warm, stirring until everything is well blended. Remove from heat and stir in five-spice powder and sherry. Pour sauce over pork; mix to coat all pieces, cover and allow to marinate in refrigerator for at least 6 hours, turning a few times.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place a large shallow pan half full of hot water on the bottom of the oven (or on the lowest rack). Wipe top rack, which should be at least 7 inches above the water, with paper towel dipped in vegetable oil. Turn pork once more in marinade to coat well and place pieces directly on the rack, leaving spaces between them but arranging them so that the drippings will fall into the water (the water will also provide moisture during cooking). Bake 20 minutes.
  • Lower heat to 350 degrees and bake 10 minutes more. (For sweeter pork, brush pieces lightly during the last 10 minutes with 2 tablespoons honey mixed with 2 tablespoons marinade.)
  • Remove pork pieces from oven; if it will not be used immediately as an ingredient in one of the following dishes, cool, wrap and refrigerate or freeze until needed. To use, cut into pieces to match the dish you have in mind; for example, dice pork if dish contains diced vegetables.

BONNIE'S CHINESE PORK ROAST AND DUMPLINGS



BONNIE'S CHINESE PORK ROAST AND DUMPLINGS image

I was craving Chinese food, so I thought I would try my hand at making a pork roast with all my favorite Asian flavors. I also wanted to make it in the crockpot. I paired the roast with steamed white rice, vegetables and pork dumplings. It turned out really good, and I am happy to share this recipe with my JAP friends! ...

Provided by BonniE !

Categories     Roasts

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 to 2 pound lean pork roast, trim any fat
6 large carrots cut into chunks
1 large onion cut into thick slices
1 cup snow peas
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 can vegetable broth
1/2 teaspoon chinese 5 spice powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons minced garlic from jar
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 can drained mushrooms or fresh sliced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
12 to 14 frozen dumplings (also called pot stickers)
1/4 cup chopped green onions (garnish)

Steps:

  • 1. Wash and prepare the carrots and onions and place in the bottom of the crockpot and pour one can of vegetable broth over the vegetables. Add grated ginger, cilantro and garlic to the vegetables. Add mushrooms to the vegetables if desired.
  • 2. Place the meat on top of the vegetables. You may brown the meat if you wish. I chose not to. Pour 1/2 cup of soy sauce over the meat. Sprinkle the top with 2 tablespoons sesame oil. Sprinkle the Chinese 5 spice powder and the red pepper flakes evenly over the top of the meat, then do the same with the brown sugar. The meat will not be covered with liquid. (Don't wash off the spices or sugar) Cook on high about 4 hours, and low 1 to 2 hours. Test with meat thermometer. Time will depend on your crockpot and size of the roast. You don't want to overcook the meat. You want it just done enough so it will be firm enough to slice, or it will fall apart. Add the snow peas in the last hour of cooking.
  • 3. Fry 14 frozen dumplings (or pot stickers) in a little olive oil and sesame oil until golden brown, add 2/3 cup of water and put the lid on to steam them according to package directions. Set aside.
  • 4. Remove the meat to a platter and slice it in thick slices.
  • 5. Push the vegetables to the side of the crockpot and carefully put the cooked dumplings in the juices. Handle them carefully so as not to tear them. Then add the sliced pork. Let the dumplings and meat rest in the juices about 10 minutes on low to warm up and absorb the flavors, then serve immediately. Serve the sliced pork with the dumplings, white rice and the vegetables from the crockpot. Garnish with chopped onions.
  • 6. Dinner is served! Enjoy!

CHINESE ROAST PORK



Chinese Roast Pork image

This is a very easy dish to throw together, as once you have combined all the ingredients, it is just the marinating of the pork that takes the time. I tend to marinade mine in the morning before work but it can also be marinated overnight if preferred. I served ours with vegetable and egg fried rice but feel free to serve it with whatever you like. Prep Time does not include marinating time.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right cut of pork is crucial. Look for a pork shoulder that has a good amount of marbling, as this will result in a more flavorful and tender roast.
  • Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of salt and spices in your rub. This will help to create a flavorful crust on the outside of the pork.
  • Roast the pork at a low temperature for a long period of time. This will help to render the fat and connective tissue, resulting in a tender and juicy roast.
  • Let the pork rest for at least 30 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender roast.
  • Serve the roast pork with your favorite dipping sauce or gravy. Some popular options include hoisin sauce, plum sauce, and ginger-scallion sauce.

Conclusion:

Chinese roast pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed on its own or as part of a larger meal. With its crispy skin, tender meat, and flavorful spices, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a special dish to make, give Chinese roast pork a try.
