Five Spice Pork Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Place the roast on its side and split in half lengthwise with a sharp knife. Make shallow slashes in a diamond pattern on both sides of each piece. Transfer halves to a flat dish.
• Whisk rice vinegar, garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, sriracha, salt, pepper, and Chinese 5-spice powder together in a bowl. Pour sauce over the meat; turn each piece over several times to thoroughly coat. Let meat marinate for about 30 minutes at room temperature. (Or transfer to a zip top bag and refrigerate for 3 or 4 hours.)
• Heat a heavy cast iron skillet over medium-high heat; add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Brown meat on each side, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Transfer to a plate to rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine spice powder and salt on a plate; generously coat pork tenderloins. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, and pour in oil. Add tenderloins; brown well on all sides, about 4 minutes per side.
• Transfer to oven, and roast until meat is cooked through, about 15 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center registers 160 degrees. Remove from oven; let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine the first eight ingredients; rub over entire roast. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Place roast on a greased rack in a roasting pan. , Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 hours or until a thermometer reads 160°. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together garlic, ginger, five-spice powder and oil. Sprinkle salt over pork. Rub pork evenly with spice rub; refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450°F Place pork on a rack in roasting pan; bake 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 250°F Bake an additional 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 145 F to 150°F.
• Remove pork from oven, cover loosely with foil. Let stand 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix together the five-spice powder, soy, honey, rice wine, vinegar, ginger, garlic and chilli. If you have time, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and sit the pork in the dish skin-side up, so only the meaty side is in the marinade and the skin stays dry. Salt the skin lightly and chill overnight if you have time, or for up to 24 hrs. (If you don't have time to marinate the pork, skip this and move straight to step two.)
• Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/ gas 2. Pour the marinade (the excess if you've chilled the pork overnight) into a roasting tin. Sit the pork on top, skin-side up - it should fit snugly in the tin. Roast for 2 hrs. Remove from the oven, then lift the pork onto a board. Pour the fat from the tin into a bowl, then pour the juices through a sieve into a small pan. Wipe down the tin. The pork can be prepared up to this stage two days ahead and kept chilled.
• Turn the oven up to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Put the pork back in the tin, skin-side up, and brush the skin with the oil. Roast for 30-35 mins, basting with the reserved fat once or twice, until the skin has blistered and crackled. If the skin hasn't crackled after 35 mins, slide the pork under a hot grill, but watch carefully to ensure it doesn't burn. Lift the pork onto a board and leave to rest for a few minutes.
• While the pork is still in the oven, add the stock to the pan with the roasting juices and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes, adding more soy or vinegar to taste, if you like. Mix the cornflour with 1 tbsp water to create a smooth paste. Stir this into the sauce and simmer until thickened. Keep warm on the lowest heat. Carve the pork into thick slices and serve with veg and the gravy, or cut into squares and top with spring onions, chillies and coriander, with the gravy alongside for dunking.

Steps:

• Rub roast with five spice powder.
• Sear roast in a skillet with hot oil before placing it in the cooker.

• Cover and cook on low setting for 10 to 12 hours or on high setting for 4 1/2 to 5 hours.
• For Gravy: Strain cooking liquid.
• Skim off fat.
• Combine 2 cups of liquid (may have to add water to make 2 cups) with cornstarch and water.
• Cook until thick and bubbly.
• Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Trim fat from roasts and cut down to fit into your crockpot.
• If necessary, remove the bone.
• Rub the Five Spice Powder all over pork roast.
• Brown roast on all sides in oil.
• Place browned roasted into crockpot.
• Mix together apple juice, wine and soy sauce and pour mixture over roast.
• Cook on low for 10 hours or high for 4 1/2 to 5 hours.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
• Cut up roast and place roast in oven to keep warm while preparing sauce.
• Strain liquid into a large measuring cup.
• Skim off fat.
• If there isn't 2 cups of liquid, add water to make up the difference.
• Next, heat liquid in a small saucepan.
• Mix together water and cornstarch; add to saucepan.
• Cook until liquid it becomes thick.
• Serve gravy over roast and rice.

Steps:

• Mix the pork medallions with the soy sauce and five-spice; leave to marinate for 5 mins. Heat a large non-stick pan, then fry the pork for 2-3 mins on each side until cooked through. Pour in 150ml boiling water with the honey and bubble for 2 mins. Mix the cornflour with a little water, stir into the sauce and cook until it thickens and is glossy.
• Meanwhile, make the fried rice. Pour the egg into a non-stick frying pan to make an omelette, cooking for 2 mins on each side. Remove, roll up, and cut into thin strips. Add the rice to the pan with the peas and stir-fry for 3-5 mins until piping hot, then gently stir through the omelette with the spring onions and seasoning and cook for 1 min. Serve with the pork and a dash more soy sauce.
