Char Siu Glazed Pork Steaks and Crispy Seaweed Style Kale

and Salt and Pepper Chips

Char siu refers to a Cantonese inspired barbecue dish typically made with pork, though the versatile flavours of white miso, plum, orange, Five Spice and soy sauce used for the marinade pair well with almost any meat. In this dish, we're pairing glazed pork steaks with kale seasoned with sugar and sesame to give the flavours of seaweed, a popular side dish.

Instructions

Start the Prep
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.

Bake your Salt and Pepper Chips
2

Pop the chips and sliced pepper onto a large baking tray.

Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the Chinese Five Spice and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Bash the Pork
3

Sandwich each pork steak between two pieces of baking paper or cling film.

Pop onto a board, then give it a bash with a rolling pin or the bottom of a saucepan until it’s 1-2cm thick. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.

Fry the Pork
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan.

Once hot, add the pork steaks. Fry until browned, 2-3 mins on each side. Reduce the heat to medium and fry for an additional 4-6 mins, turning every couple of mins. IMPORTANT: The pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Make your Crispy Kale
5

While your pork fries, spread the kale out on a baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season. Sprinkle over the sugar (see pantry for amount) and sesame seeds

Bake the kale on the middle shelf until crispy, 7-8 mins.

Once your pork has finished frying, remove the steaks from the pan to a plate and cover with foil to rest.

Reduce the heat of the (now empty) pan to low and stir in the char siu and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount). Simmer until thickened slightly, 1-2 mins. Add the pork steaks back into the pan, along with any juices, then turn to coat in the sauce.

Finish and Serve
6

Transfer your pork steaks to your serving plates. 

Serve your salt and pepper chips and crispy seaweed style kale alongside.

Serve with mayonnaise (see pantry for amount) alongside for dipping.
