Stir Fry Char Sui Pork Mince & Broccoli

Stir Fry Char Sui Pork Mince & Broccoli


I happened across a 500g pack of Pork mince for just over £1 so Sue set about her recipe rummaging and came up with this. Realistically this recipe would easily feed 4 and we had enough left to pop in Taco shells the following day.

Ingredients:-

500g of Pork mince
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
A Thumb of Ginger, minced
1 Carrot, cut into lengthways strips
1 Red Pepper, cut into strips
2 Spring Onions, sliced lengthways
2 Chillies, chopped
1 Tbsp of Honey
1 Tbsp of Black Bean Sauce or Hoisin Sauce
40ml of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
30ml of Shaoxing Wine
1 Tsp Chinese Five Spice
A handful of Peanuts, roughly chopped
½ a head of Broccoli, separated into florets
1 Onion, finely diced
Oil to fry
A splash of Water

Method:-

(1) Mix together the Black Bean sauce, honey, Soy Sauce, Five Spice, Shaoxing Wine and a splash of water.
(2) Set aside your Char Sui Sauce.
(3) Heat a little Oil in a pan, add the Garlic &Ginger and cook gently for a minute.
(4) Add the Pork mince and fry on a high heat until browned, stirring continually.
(5) Remove from the pan and set aside.
(6) Add more Oil if required and fry the Broccoli, Carrots, Onion and Pepper, for a few minutes.
(7) Return the mince to the pan and stir to combine.
(8) Stir in the Char Sui Sauce and cook over a low heat until heated through.
(9) Garnish with Spring Onions and chopped Peanuts.

We served ours over Rice Noodles, but this would work equally well over boiled rice.

Black Bean Sauce

Our latest challenge is to create 100 authentic Asian style dishes. Obviously we could have bought a jar of Black Bean Sauce, but where is the fun in that?!

Ingredients:-

100g of Fermented Black Beans (These are available in Chinese Supermarkets and are really inexpensive)
80ml of Oil
5 Cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Tbsp of fresh Ginger, minced
3 Shallots, finely diced
2 Tbsp of Sugar
2 Tpsp of Shaoxing Rice Wine
2 Tsp of Soy Sauce
¼ Tsp of Five Spice
1 Tsp of Chilli Flakes

Method:-

(1) Rinse and drain the Beans.
(2) Finely chop 2/3 of the Beans, reserving 1/3 whole.
(3) On a low heat, heat the Oil and add the Shallots, Ginger and Garlic.
(4) Sauté into tender and fragrant.
(5) Add the Fermented Black Beans and fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
(6) Pour over the Soy Sauce,  Shaoxing Wine, Five Spice, Chilli Flakes and Sugar.
(7) Cook to reduce until the Sauce has thickened.
(8) Cool and transfer to an air tight jar.

This is a very concentrated foundation sauce.
