This is very tasty, however I must admit that when cooking the pork the stated amount of time was not enough for my family. After resting the pork was still VERY pink so I put it back in the oven for another 5 minutes. This cooked the pork through entirely. I know that this probably wasn't Ming's intention for the dish but for those of you who like thoroughly cooked pork please know you need to cook the meat longer. Ingredients:
1 cup hoisin sauce |
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic |
2 tablespoons finely chopped ginger |
1/2 cup dry red wine |
1/4 cup chopped scallion, white part only |
2 (8 ounce) pork tenderloin |
fresh ground pepper |
2 tablespoons canola oil |
4 large hamburger buns with sesame seeds |
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar |
1/4 cup fish sauce |
8 large basil leaves, cut into ribbons |
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
3 cups napa cabbage, cut into 1/8 inch ribbons |
1 cup bean sprouts |
1 cup carrot, shredded |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. In a baking dish large enough to cook pork mix hoisin sauce, garlic, ginger, wine, and scallions. Add pork and turn to coat.
2. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours; preferably overnight.
3. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Season pork with salt and pepper.
4. Heat a skillet over high heat. Add oil; swirl to coat pan. Add pork turning only once and cooking for 5 minutes total until browned. Transfer to oven.
5. Roast 12 to 15 minutes until done. Let pork rest 5 minutes then cut into 1/4 inch slices.
6. For slaw: in a large bowl wisk together vinegar, fish sauce, basil, sugar, and crushed pepper to blend.
7. Add remaining ingredients and toss to mix and coat.
8. Halve buns and toast lightly if you wish. Top bottom of bun with slaw. Add 6-8 slices of pork and top with more slaw. Serve with additional slaw if desired.
