Guru Kitchen Char Siu (Barbecue pork) 300g

Hong Kong brand “Guru Kitchen” carefully selects local UK ingredients and combines them with innovative processing techniques to bring classic Hong Kong flavours to the whole of the UK. We also launched a Hong Kong Flavour Series, delivering every guest a joyful and satisfying dining experience with our greatest passion.

The term “Char Siu” literally means “roast on a skewer” — pork is skewered on long iron rods or hooks and slowly roasted over charcoal or open flame. Hong Kong-style Char Siu is not just a dish; it represents a perfect combination of daily Hong Kong food culture and culinary artistry.

Traditional Char Siu is made from pork shoulder (pork butt/neck), marinated with soy sauce, honey, rose wine, fermented red bean curd, and a variety of spices to create a sweet-and-Savory glaze. The meat is then slowly roasted over fire. The marinade penetrates the meat, while the honey creates a caramelized surface, giving the Char Siu a glossy reddish colour and slightly charred aroma. After roasting, the outer layer is slightly crisp, while the interior remains tender and juicy.

Defrost in the refrigerator for 12 hours. Microwave on high for 8 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 75°C. (To maintain quality, do not heat continuously. Heat for 2 minutes at a time, repeating 4 times to reach a total of 8 minutes.)
