CHINESE MARINADE

Steps:

• Finely grate the ginger, collect it up into a ball and squeeze out the juice into a bowl.
• Stir in the other ingredients and use as required.

CHINESE PORK MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, except pork, in a bowl and mix well.
• Coat pork in mixture. I store mine in quart sized zipper bags, 2-3 chops per bag.
• Let pork marinade in refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour. I marinate for 24 hours.
• Cook outdoors on grill until done. On my grill that's 4-5 minutes per side.
• They also cook well indoors on a contact type grill. I generally cook for 5-6 minutes indoors.
• Pork filled bags may be frozen with marinade and thawed to cook later.
• **Note - Marinating time is not included in my "time to Make".

TAKEOUT-STYLE CHINESE SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Mix together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, five-spice powder, garlic, ginger and food coloring in a metal, non-reactive bowl. Pour the marinade into a large zip-top bag, reserving 1/2 cup on the side for basting later. Add the ribs to the bag and marinate, refrigerated, for at least 3 hours, though longer is better and overnight is ideal.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to 275 degrees F for direct and indirect grilling.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade (discard the marinade) and place onto a wire rack. Place the rack directly on the cooler side of the grill. Cook until the meat is very tender, basting with the reserved marinade 3 times during the cooking process, 2 to 3 hours.
• Drizzle the ribs with honey, move them to the direct heat side and quickly char each rib to caramelize.

KOREAN MARINADE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, green onion, garlic, toasted sesame seeds, flour, and pepper. Place meat in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or overnight.

SPICY ASIAN MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix together all the ingredients in a bowl and use as directed in the recipe or for other foods.

MARINATED PORK CHOPS, CHINESE STYLE

Steps:

• Marinate the chops in a mixture of the soy sauce, garlic, scallions, ginger, sesame oil and pepper for two hours at room temperature.
• Heat the peanut oil in a skillet large enough to hold the chops comfortably, remove them from the marinade and brown them for three to four minutes on each side. Add the wine, hoisin sauce and remaining marinade, scrape up the cooking juices, cover and cook over medium heat for about five minutes, or until the pork is done. Be careful not to overcook the meat or it will be tough.
• Place the chops on heated plates and spoon the sauce over the top.

SALMON IN A SOY & HONEY MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix together soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic spring onions and lime juice - taste to your liking and season with black pepper.
• Rinse the fish with clean water and gently pat dry with kitchen paper.
• Pour the sauce over the fish in a large bowl, making sure the fillets are covered. Seal the bowl with cling film and leave to marinade in the fridge for 20 minutes.
• Once marinaded, loosely wrap the fish in individual foil parcels with a couple of spoonfuls of the marinade, leaving a 1 inch gap in the top of the foil.
• Place on a tray in a pre-heated oven at around 160°C for 15-20 minutes. Pour the remaining marinade into the parcels half way through cooking. Meanwhile, cook your rice or noodles.
• Serve with vegetables such as broccoli, green beans or red peppers. Unwrap the parcels and use a flat utensil to lift the fish out and place onto your plate.
• Sprinkle the fish with sesame seeds and fresh chopped spring onion to garnish.
