Hi and welcome to Spice and Pens. Today we'll be making honey pork. So let's start cooking.
I'm going to marinate my pork right now. I'm using 330 grams of streaky pork or wu hua rou,
kind to sizes like this. You need to add in one tablespoon of oyster sauce,
one tablespoon of light soy sauce, one tablespoon of Chinese rice wine,
you'll need pepper too, a few dashes of it, and one egg white from an egg. Now we are doing a
very light marinade over here because I'm not putting in too much of a soy sauce or oyster
sauce because we will have a sauce to accompany this. So mix them up well first and then we'll
add in our potato flour or potato starch. You can use corn flour or tapioca flour, no problem.
Half a cup of this and mix them up well and leave them in the fridge to marinate for approximately
one hour or so. I'll see you back in a while. We are now prepared to fry the pork. Make sure you
mix them up well first. We'll be doing a double fry because we want this to be really crispy.
I'm going to fry this in two separate batches because of the amount of pork that I have and
leave them alone for a minute or so. Don't move them around first because we want the crust to
form first. This will be so juicy, so crispy and so nice. Something like this will be good,
just a light golden brown because we want to double fry this. So I'm removing this from the
oil now. I can feel how crispy they are already. Put in the second batch. Now we proceed to do
the second frying. Heat up the oil. Make sure it's really hot. Smells really good.
When they're golden brown like this, we'll remove them from the oil.
Really really crispy now. Next we'll prepare the sauce for the pork. Now we'll prepare the sauce.
Heat up a wok or pan, add in a little bit of oil, one tablespoon of ginger grated,
four cloves of garlic chopped. Fry until fragrant. You don't have to brown this.
I'm using medium heat over here. Remember to stir them. We don't want to burn this.
When you can smell it, we'll add in half a cup of water.
We'll also add in three tablespoons of light soy sauce, one tablespoon of brown sugar,
as well as two tablespoons of honey. This dish is very simple. This is all you need
to make this beautiful sauce. Just make sure that we mix everything up nicely.
Before we thicken it up, let's just give this a taste. Make sure that it's sweet and savory
enough for us. Beautiful. I'm just going to thicken this up a little bit. I'm going to thicken
this up with cornstarch solution now. I'll turn up the heat a little bit just to make sure that
it's boiling. The trick to having crispy pork is to add the heat to the sauce, put the pork in
and toss quickly. Time to serve this. Now the pork is done, let's have a taste.
Very flavorful. You can taste the ginger, the garlic, the sweetness from the honey.
Really good. Ladies and gentlemen, this is how we cook our honey pork. I hope you like our video.
