Daging Babi Peking

Instructions

1. Chinese Pork Chops Marinade: Pat dry the pork tenderloin with kitchen paper towels, pound the sliced pork with a mallet or the back of a Chinese cleaver until tender. (If using pork spare ribs, skip this process.) Set aside. In a bowl, mix the marinade ingredients, add the pork, mix well, and marinade for 30 minutes.
2. Peking Sauce. In a separate bowl, mix the sauce ingredients. You may adjust the amount of sugar or other sauce ingredients according to your preference. Set the sauce mixture aside.
3. Heat up a wok with enough oil for deep-frying. Fry for for 5 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and become slightly crispy. Remove them from the wok, drain the excess oil with paper towels, and set them aside.
4. Bring the sauce to a quick boil, then add the deep-fried pork chops, stirring until all the meat is well coated with sauce. Transfer the pork chops to a serving platter and sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top. Serve immediately with steamed rice.
