CHINESE ROAST PORK

Steps:

• For the marinade: Put the ginger, shallots, and garlic into a blender, and puree.
• Transfer the mixture to a bowl, and add the oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and tomato paste, and stir to incorporate.
• For the pork: Put the trimmed tenderloins into a baking dish, and pour over half of the marinade, turning to coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap, then place the pork in the refrigerator, and let it marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes to a maximum of 24 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat. Remove the pork tenderloins from the marinade and sear on all sides in the hot pan. Baste the pork with the remaining marinade throughout the cooking process.
• Slide the pan into the preheated oven, and cook until the pork is cooked through, approximately 20 minutes. Allow the meat to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

CHINESE ROAST PORK

Steps:

• To Marinate: Pierce meaty sides of meat with fork; place roast in a large plastic bag. In a medium bowl combine the soy sauce, sherry, honey, garlic and ginger. Mix well and pour mixture into bag with pork. Press air out of the bag and tie securely. Refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight, turning bag over occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Remove roast and marinade from refrigerator. Reserving marinade, remove roast and place in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Brush with reserved marinade; cover loosely with foil and roast for an additional 1 1/2 hours (or until the internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), brushing several times with marinade.
• Remove roast from oven and let stand 15 minutes. Combine pan drippings with remaining marinade. In a small bowl combine cornstarch with cold water, mix together and add mixture to marinade. Boil marinade mixture for 4 to 5 minutes, or until mixture thickens. Serve with roast.

Pierce the pork chops on both sides with a fork, place in a large resealable plastic bag, and cover with the remaining marinade mixture. Refrigerate 6 to 8 hours.
• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Discard marinade, and grill pork chops 6 to 8 minutes per side, or to desired doneness, marinating often with the reserved portion of the marinade.

CHINESE ROAST PORK ON GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Cut the pork into 1-by-4-inch pieces (each about the size of a stick of butter).
• Make the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, wine, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, five-spice powder and, if using, the bean curd and its liquid. Add the pork, and mix thoroughly, then cover, and refrigerate for a few hours or up to 1 day.
• When you're ready to cook the pork, heat the oven to its highest temperature (not the broil setting). Line a large sheet pan with aluminum foil, and put a metal rack on top. Take the pork out of the marinade, and place it on the rack in an even layer. Reserve remaining marinade.
• Slide the pan into the top third of the oven, and roast for 20 minutes. Turn the pieces, and roast until each piece is deeply caramelized on all sides and fall-apart tender, another 20 to 25 minutes, basting with the remaining marinade. (If the pork isn't as caramelized as you'd like, turn on the broiler to crisp the meat's exterior, 1 to 2 minutes.)
• Turn off the oven, and transfer pork to a cutting board. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes, then slice about half the pieces lengthwise into thin strips about the size of thick-cut bacon. (Reserve the uncut pieces for future use, over rice, in stir-fries, etc.)
• Make the garlic bread: Mash together the butter and garlic, and then spread across the sliced sides of the rolls or bread. Place bread directly onto middle rack in the still-hot oven to toast for 3 to 5 minutes. While your bread is toasting, prepare your homemade duck sauce by stirring together the apricot jam with vinegar, to taste.
• Assemble the sandwiches: Spread mustard on one side of toasted bread, then duck sauce on the other. Add the sliced roast pork, garnish heavily with sliced scallions and serve.

CANTONESE CHAR SIU PORK AND VEGETABLE SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• To make the filling, combine the sugar, salt, white pepper, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and water in a small bowl. Stir this flavoring sauce well and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds until soft and aromatic. Add the cabbage, celery, and carrot, stirring to combine well. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 1 minute, until the vegetables have collapsed slightly. Add the flavoring sauce, stirring to combine, and continue cooking for about 2 minutes, until most of the liquid has disappeared and the vegetables have just cooked through. Add the pork and continue cooking, stirring to combine the flavors and heat through, about 1 minute. Give the cornstarch a final stir, and pour over the filling mixture. Cook for about 30 seconds, to bind the mixture nicely. Transfer to a platter and spread out. Set aside to cool completely before using. You should have about 3 cups. (The filling can be prepared 2 days in advance, covered, and refrigerated after cooling. Return to room temperature before wrapping.)
• Before assembling the spring rolls, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly dust with cornstarch. For each spring roll, use about 1/4 cup of filling, placing it slightly below the center of the skin. Follow the directions on page 75 to create the cigar shape, taking care to not wrap too tightly because you want just two layers of skin around the filling. Before rolling up the spring roll all the way to seal it, brush beaten egg on the upper two edges to ensure that the skin seals well. Set the finished rolls, seam side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel to prevent drying.
• Fry the rolls in two stages. Heat 1 inch of oil in a wok, saucepan, or deep skillet over medium-high heat to about 350°F on a deep-fry thermometer. (If you don't have a deep-fry thermometer, stick a dry bamboo chopstick into the oil; if bubbles rise immediately to the surface and encircle the chopstick, the oil is ready.) Slide in few spring rolls and fry for about 1 1/2 minutes, turning as needed, until light golden. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the other rolls. These rolls soft en as they sit, so after their first frying, refry them for 45 to 60 seconds in 350°F oil until crispy and golden brown.
• Serve hot, whole or cut in half diagonally, with the dipping sauce of your choice.
