This is a very easy yet tasty way to prepare pork tenderloin, you can serve this hot or cold and any leftovers are great chopped up in a sandwich the next day with a little BBQ sauce. I served ours over vegetable fried rice for very flavoursome dinner. It is also a very low carb recipe so if you served it with just veg instead of rice it is about 6g carbohydrates per serving.
Ingredients
1kg Pork fillet
Marinade
2 Cloves garlic, minced
3 Slices ginger, 6 mm thick
1 Teaspoon sugar
Good pinch pepper
1 Teaspoon sesame oil
1 Tablespoon black bean sauce
1 Tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 Tablespoon shaoxing wine (Chinese rice wine)
1 Tablespoon light soy sauce
1/4 Teaspoon five-spice powder
1 Pinch of chinese red food coloring (I leave this out)
2 Teaspoons dark soy sauce
Glaze
1 Tablespoon oil
2 Tablespoon golden syrup
2 Teaspoons light soy sauce
Method
1. Mix all the marinade ingredients together in a dish, add the pork and marinate for at least 2 hours, turning occasionally.
2. Heat the oven to 180c.
3. Place the pork on a rack in the middle of the oven.
4. Place a pan with 6mm of water on the bottom rack in the oven and roast for 30 minutes.
5. Allow to rest for 10 minutes.
6. For the glaze, heat oil in saucepan over moderate heat, stir in golden syrup and soy sauce.
Spoon glaze over meat just before serving.
