For all those times you've gazed longingly at the sticky red pork hanging from hooks in the window of Chinese Barbecue Meat Shops… MAKE IT AT HOME! It's so easy - you'll be amazed ho simple the Char Siu Sauce marinade is.

Authentic Note: Traditional Char Siu is stained red using fermented bean curds (which is red) which is a speciality ingredient found in some Asian grocery stores - you need to hunt into the dark corners to locate it. I have no other use for that ingredient so I started making it using red food colouring instead and it came out the same, so I stuck with it. The small amount of bean curd used doesn't affect the flavour, it's for the red colour.
