Meat:

Tips:

1. Cutting your pork in to 2 cm thick, it is easy to marinate and bake;
2. Marinate the pork overnight or at least 10 hours;
3. Adding some corn flour after marinating, is a traditional way to make char siu, which will lock the juice inside the meat and create a shining flavorful glaze

Enjoy :)
