Sweet Soy Pork Hocks Recipes

SWEET SOY PORK HOCKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Place all ingredients in a sturdy roasting tin and cover with double layer of foil.
• Roast for 2 1/2 hours, turning the pork hocks over halfway, then remove the foil and cook for another 1 1/2 hours, basting with the juices and turning pork every 30 minutes.
• To serve, break the pork into large pieces (discarding the skin and most of the fat) and pour the braising liquid over the meat.
• Serve with brown rice and coriander.

BRAISED PORK IN SWEET SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the pork in about 1 inch pieces and saute in a pan with the vegetable oil for about 3 minutes over medium-high heat, until the pork is no longer pink and starts to brown.
• In a medium bowl mix the rest of the ingredients. Pour over the pork and bring to a boil. You may think there's too much water, but it will reduce. Once it's boiling turn the heat down to low and let simmer for about 30 minutes uncovered, stirring occasionally, or until there's only about 3 tbsp of sauce left.
• Garnish with green onions. Serve over noodles or steamed rice.

SOY AND HONEY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix honey, soy sauce, crushed red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a bowl. Pour about 2 tablespoons of the honey-soy mixture into a small bowl and save for later. Brush chops with canola oil on both sides, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
• Grill the chops on the hottest part of the grill until lightly charred and crusty, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Move the chops to a cooler area of the grill, and continue to cook, brushing both sides generously with the honey-soy glaze, until chops are no longer pink inside, about 3 to 4 more minutes. The juices should run clear, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• While chops are grilling, brush slices of onion with oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Grill onion slices until they are translucent and browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. To serve, place chops and onions on warmed plates, and brush the chops with the reserved honey-soy glaze.
