Char Siu – Chinese BBQ Pork Belly
Pane-Bistecca
Char Siu, Chinese BBQ Pork, is one of the best-known dishes in China. I made it once before with this Pork roast, but it can easily also be cooked with pork belly. It’s easy and relatively quick.
Pork belly cooked this way will turn out delicious and very typically Chinese! It doesn’t only fit to rice but also to noodles or why don’t you dice it and serve it as finger-food? It’s delicious party food!

Ingredients
1 Slice Pork Belly approx. 400-500 g
4 tbsp Soy Sauce
4 tbsp Hoisin Sauce
2 tbsp Shaoxing Wine or dry Sherry
2 tbsp Honey
1 tbsp brown Sugar
1 tbsp chopped Garlic
Pepper
1/2 tsp Ginger Powder
Marinade
Instructions
1
Step 1
Mix all ingredients for the marinade and mix until the sugar has dissolved. Put the pork belly into the marinade and let marinate over night or for at least 6 hours.
2
Step 2
Pre-heat the oven to 180 C and put a baking tray under the baking roast, so the liquid will not drip into your oven.

Step 3
Put the pork belly onto the baking roast and turn it oven every 10 minutes. Each time baste the meat with the leftover marinade. Do this for 40 minutes, then the meat should be cooked. If your piece of belly is very thick add more cooking time.

Step 4
If you have a grill function in your oven, you can use that, but be careful not to burn the meat, as the sugar will turn black fast. You can serve the pork belly warm or cold!
Notes
If you like it sticky, pour the leftover marinade into a small pan and bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let simmer for a few minutes. The sauce will reduce and thicken. Serve the meat with the sauce or serve the sauce as a dip with the diced pork belly at your party!
