Meat:
3 pounds skinless pork belly or pork shoulder
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 :)

I am sad it took me six years to discover your videos, but in the last few months I've made several of your recipes with fantastic results. You are a youtube treasure!

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

This was my first video EVER! I'm still learning how to have the right structure, get the lighting right and edit properly... and working on my jokes =) I know this is not the best video, but the recipe is great! I really appreciate you watching- It means the world to me. Subscribe if you want more delicious recipes- I promise to improve my video quality as I make more videos

[@MaZEEZaM]

The video seemed really good to me :D no complaints. On a note for future videos Please don't add music as some other videos do, for me it spoils the experience of watching you cook.

[@annjean4369]

Souped Up Recipes , You did an outstanding job!

[@rtesarsuelo3370]

you did good for A 1st time :)

[@truthhurtz2793]

Everything was perfect !

[@annjean4369]

Truth Hurtz, exactly!

[@flyagaric1607]

I tried this recipe and I do it once a week. It is amazing. Who needs any other recipes when you have this one. Also, I use the leftover juices, a touch of water and a dash of soy and add it to beansprout, then thicken - which gives the most amazing side dish. Thank You Mandy! Love you x

[@Thundaarr]

My first time seeing this video. I didn't know it was your first ever. 6 years later and you are still doing amazing videos. I have become a better cook thanks to you and your tips in all respects. I hope you keep up the great work and I wish nothing but success for you.

[@kay5634]

I've made this dish twice this week, that's how well it went down! The leftovers, not that there were many went really well with your egg fried rice recipe. I'm looking forward to trying more of your dishes. Thank you!

[@kevingarner1558]

I just finished eating a half pound of this wonderful Char Siu ( I couldn't stop either)! I really appreciate your hard work in bringing us these great recipes and links to the ingredients. I live in a small rural town in Idaho USA and don't have access to any real authentic Chinese food. You have made it possible for me to experience these wonderful foods. Thanks Mandy!

[@scottbrinks9248]

We have used this recipe twice now and each time it is more delicious. We love (I love!) Char Siu... thank you for this clear and easy way to make wonderful Chinese pork! You are the best!

[@manashaisaac1145]

I can't be the only one who drooled a little when she sliced that pork 😂😂😂😂

[@nicolasnareshkumar]

No you're not..

[@dawnmichelle4403]

I made this and shared with my friends. They were dumbfounded at its deliciousness! It was amazing. I couldn't find the red yeast powder, but I did use the bean curd. Turned out beautifully!

[@OfficialFidget]

OMG! This is by far the best Char Siu marinade EVER! Thank you for taking the time to make this video and magnificent recipe.

[@brucebrunshwiler1]

I have made a few different char siu recipes and i have to tell you, my wife just loves the addition of the garlic chili sauce, and so do I. Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes.

[@PozoBlue]

Every time I make char siu, I always end up looking for your recipe. The best I've found so far. I comes out soooo delicious. My family devours it :D and keeps wanting more!

[@mrlopez5009]

You are an excellent teacher, and an amazing cook! Thank You for the efforts! Amazing and professional edit and video production as well... you are the best of KZbin for sure!

[@kpearle]

I just made my first char siu sauce ever, after watching your video. It's marinating in the fridge now and I can hardly wait to come home from work tomorrow and cook it! Thank you for your video. I look forward to watching more.

[@Tanuhandaru]

[@sheryllim2713]

Hi Mandy, I'm from Singapore. We love our meat and are really fussy about it. I made this last night and it was sooooo good. All compliments at the table. I have tried other recipes claiming to be the best char siu recipe, but neither is as good as this. Thank you for sharing this recipe and continue to come up with more :) I'm new to your space by the way :D

[@spartakum69]

If a Singaporean commented that this recipe is good, then I'll try this recipe 😁

After watching just 2 of your videos, I had to subscribe!! I love your recipes, how simple you explain the process and of course, your charm☺️thank you for sharing and I look forward to seeing what you cook next!!

[@jduff59]

I live in a vegan household so it's a guilty pleasure to watch cooking videos, as close as I get to eating meat. This looks wonderful and I can only imagine the flavors. There is no vegan substitute and never will be. Thanks for sharing Mandy!

[@coachmichael9604]

OMG, I want to thank you for this amazing recipe in particular, & a slew of others, one of them (Taiwan-style Beef Noodle Soup 台灣牛肉麵） is in my slow cooker while still at work. Last week, I made the Char Siu (叉燒肉）， crispy Roast Pork (燒肉） & Soy Chicken (醬油雞）, every single one turned out better than I had expected! In fact, I'd go out on a limb and claim, my homemade 3-choice BBQ over rice ( 三拼叉燒。燒肉。醬油雞）+ blanched Bok Choy 燙青菜 was so good, with the braising liquid (滷汁) drizzled over the rice plate was Soo yummy & satisfying - it's way better than most Hong Kong- styles BBQ restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area! There are many KZbinr chefs, I think very few lend credibility the way you (your yummy recipes) have won me over 感激！ BTW, how do you get all the Asian ingredients from 8,000 feet? 😋😋😋

[@amonrah1788]

Thank you Mandy amazing recipe!

[@imnedmonton]

Thank you for your KZbin channel. I find your videos interesting and relaxing. I love how easy and delicious the recipes are. But I am not surprised. Good food comes from simple good ingredients. Stay safe. Peace and love. ♥♥♥

Beside the char sui recipe looking fantastic, your a very likeable person.

[@kabicabby6427]

You have so much love in your cooking

[@danajohnson5993]

Finally getting around to trying this. When I was in China , I developed a taste for the “knife cut” noodles that were often a part of the breakfast buffet. I found them fresh in our local Asian / Hispanic grocery, and wanted to do them justice. This dish seemed perfect for them. I had dark soy sauce, but no red yeast powder ( on order) or the fermented tofu. I did remember the recipe from Fuchsia Dunlop for red braised pork belly that used caramelized sugar for the color and sweetening along with the dark soy sauce, so I am trying that with the dark soy sauce. It left the braised pork belly nicely red. I look forward to trying the red yeast rice next time since I understand it adds a subtle flavor.

[@manashaisaac1145]

Love your way of cooking; very straight forward you make it so easy to follow 💯💯💯 NEW SUBSCRIBER!! 👍👍

[@benolow6529]

I made char Siu and used it as a pizza topping was sooo good!!!

[@majandess]

THANK YOU! I couldn't make it exactly because I didn't have everything. I didn't have red rice powder, and I used miso paste instead of the bean curd. But it was still completely amazing. 100% would keep making on a very regular basis.
