Sticky Soy Honey Pork With Asian Noodles Recipes

STICKY HONEY SOY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat a large frying pan or skillet over high heat. Pat the pork chops dry with kitchen paper then season with 2 teaspoons oil and salt.
• Cook the pork chops in the hot pan for 3-4 minutes per side until well browned. Turn the chops onto their fat caps and allow to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fat is well browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Combine the soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, chilli & lemon juice in a mixing jug and mix well. Pour into the pan and allow to simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce coats the back of a spoon then add the pork chops back in.
• Glaze the chops with the sauce until they are coated, sticky and shiny.
• Remove from the heat and serve.

STICKY PORK WITH GINGERED NOODLES & KALE

Steps:

• Mix half the ginger with the soy, honey and five-spice in a shallow dish. Add the pork steaks and turn in the mixture to coat. Grill for 6-8 mins, turning once, until the pork is cooked and nicely browned.
• Meanwhile, cook the noodles following pack instructions. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan, then quickly fry the remaining ginger with the kale and chilli for 2 mins until wilted. Drain the noodles and add to the pan, tossing everything together. Serve with the pork steaks.

HONEY-SOY BRAISED PORK WITH LIME AND GINGER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the pork in a large Dutch oven that has a lid. Scatter the garlic, ginger, red-pepper flakes and lime zest over the top. In a measuring cup, whisk together the tamari, honey and sesame oil, then pour it over the pork. Using tongs, turn to coat all sides of the pork in the sauce, and spoon some over the top so that some of the garlic and ginger is on top of the pork. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook for 2 hours.
• Uncover the pot and flip both chunks of pork. Cover the pot and braise until the pork shreds easily with a fork, about 1 more hour. Transfer to the stovetop.
• Using tongs, transfer the pork to a serving platter or a large shallow serving bowl. Using a ladle, skim and discard the excess fat off the surface of the cooking liquid remaining in the Dutch oven, if desired. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and let it simmer until reduced and slightly syrupy, about 8 minutes.
• While the sauce simmers, coarsely shred the pork using two forks. Sprinkle the lime juice over the top of the meat. Drizzle about half the sauce over the top of the shredded meat, then toss to combine. Serve over rice or noodles or in lettuce cups. Top with sesame seeds, scallions and cilantro. Pass the remaining sauce at the table, if desired, as well as extra lime wedges and red-pepper flakes.
