Slow-roasted Honey Glazed Pork

We really enjoyed this roast! Different to the usual roast, tasty and leftovers for the following day's dinner! #Winner

Ingredients

• 240ml soy sauce, plus 2 tbsp, divided

• 50g granulated sugar

• 3 tablespoons garlic, chopped

• 25g scallions, chopped

• 910g boneless, skin-on pork shoulder

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• salt, to taste

• freshly ground black pepper, to taste

• 220g dark brown sugar

• 170g honey

Preparation

1. In a large bowl, combine 240 ml of the soy sauce with the sugar, garlic, and scallions, stirring until mixed.

2. Score the skin of the pork by slicing a crosshatch pattern through the skin down to the meat. This will help excess fat render out and allow more of the marinade to soak in.

3. Place the pork in the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for one hour.

4. Preheat the oven to 140°C.

5. Place the marinated pork in the middle of the baking sheet or use a disposable tray! The glaze caramalises the pork and your tray!)

6. Bake 1 to 1 ½ hours, depending on the weight of the pork.

7. Raise the heat of the oven to 260ºC.

8. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, honey, and remaining soy sauce, stirring until smooth.

9. Spoon the honey glaze over the top of the pork, making sure to fill the cracks and crevices on top.

10. Bake for 20 minutes until sugar is dark brown and caramelized, and the top of the pork is crispy.

11. Slice the pork into ½-inch (2 ½ cm) slices, and plate. Spoon the reserved pan juices on top of the pork.

12. Enjoy!

This recipe is for 4 servings so we used the leftovers in a pork fried rice #yummy
