This is the exact sauce that you use when you want some real Chinese ribs. Also can be used as a marinade for boneless pork, which goes PERFECTLY in roast pork fried rice!
Ingredients:
5 -6 minced fresh garlic cloves
1 piece fresh ginger, minced
1 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 cup sherry wine
1/2 cup soy sauce (low-sodium works too-)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon chinese five spice powder
3 teaspoons red food coloring
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl,( or a jar with a tight fitting lid), until the sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate until you are ready to use it.
2. *You can set aside some for use as a dipping sauce, but you must first bring it to a full rolling boil, over med. heat, then reduce the heat to low, and simmer until it is thick, and slightly reduced.
3. **When you are ready to cook, marinate meat for 4-24 hours, turning once every two hours. You then grill or broil the meat until it is cooked through,(and slightly charred- this adds to the flavor!).
