Homemade Pork Jery (肉干)


Chinese new year is around the corner, I missed my aunt "Bak Kwa" so much. Since I'm not going back , why not I just try making one? Finally, I found the recipe from Sonia

Ingredient
  1. 450g minced pork
  2. 100g sugar
  3. 1tbsp light soy sauce
  4. 1/2tbsp Chinese rice wine
  5. 1/2tbsp fish sauce
  6. 1tbsp oyster sauce
  7. 1tsp dark caramel sauce
  8. 1/8tsp Chinese five spices powder
  9. A dash of Pepper
  10. 1/2tsp salt
  11. 2tbsp honey

Method
1. Mix all ingredients in a big bowl. Blend and stir the mixture in one direction until the meat becomes gluey. Store in the fridge for several hours.
2. Spread the marinated minced pork thinly onto the baking tray (using fingers to spread).
3. Bake at pre-heated oven at 160C for 20mins. Remove from oven. Increase the oven temperature to 240c.
4. Wait to slightly cool, cut into your desired size and place them in the same baking tray.
5. Grill one side at 240C for 10mins, remove from oven.
6. Flip over another side, wait oven back to 240C and grill for 7mins or until golden brown with slight burnt.
6. Once done, let it cool and enjoy!


P/S: First attempt is always awesome for me! >,< If I could get rid of the 猪肉味, that will be absolutely perfect (I should put more five spices powder to cover up the smell)
