This is a recipe I came up with the other night as I had a pork loin to use up. I didn’t know what I wanted to do with it so I just used a bunch of stuff I already had in my fridge and cupboard and it turned out really well. I served ours over egg and vegetable fried rice but it would be just as nice served over steamed rice as well.

Ingredients

500g Pork fillet
1/2 Cup hoisin sauce
2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons bourbon
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
2 Teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
2 Tablespoons sweet chili sauce
2 Cloves garlic, crushed

Method

1. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, add pork fillet and marinade several hours or over night in the fridge.

2. Pre-Heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius, remove pork from marinade, reserving marinade, place pork in an oven proof dish, roast for 35-40 Min’s or until cooked as desired, basting occasionally with marinade whilst cooking.

3. Remove pork and cover to keep warm.

4. In a sauce pan pour remaining marinade along with pork juices and bring to the boil, Simmer a few minutes.

Serve pork sliced over rice with sauce.
