Compared to char siew (BBQ pork) our family preferred roast pork belly which has a crisp top and savory tender meat. Frankly speaking all along I have never thought of making my own roast pork because in Singapore it can be easily bought from roast meat stores. But recently I was inspired by one of my bestie to make them at home after realizing how easy the steps were.
In this article I am sharing my version made using air-fryer and how I pair it with noodle to make a hearty meal.
For easy cleaning I test out this recipe using air-fryer (am using Avance XL Airfryer) instead of oven and roast pork turn out just as good too. Oh don't forget to checkout the video below on the preparation plus you can hear how crispy the skin was.

Wanton Noodle (aka dumpling noodle) is one of the popular Singapore local delight. The serving often consists of egg noodle, char siew, blanch vegetable and wanton in either soup or dry version. You can easily replicated this dish at home by adding some homemade or store-bought wanton, vegetables and meat for a hearty meal.

和叉烧比较之下我们更爱脆皮多汁的烧肉。最近因常听朋友提起如何在家自己做烧肉的方法,听着听着也忍不住试做了几次结果发现其实并没有想象中的困难。而且为了方便清理我还用气炸锅来代替烤箱,烘出来的效果也一样皮脆肉嫩。哦,别忘了点看以上的示范视频你还可以听听看皮有多脆呢。
气炸锅烧肉
(分量: 4人份 | 准备: 腌隔夜 | 烘烤时间: 60分钟)
材料:
700克五花肉或三层肉
2片姜
香料:
1/2 小茶匙海塩
1/4 小茶匙五香粉
1/4 小茶匙胡椒粉
1大汤匙紹興酒
2瓣大蒜,剁碎
做法:
1. 将肉用滚水川烫2分熟然后熄火让它浸泡大约5分钟, 取出用冷水降温使肉质收缩锁住肉汁。
2. 用纸巾吸干外表水份然后用肉针在猪皮上戳出无数个小洞(戳的越多越密烤出来的皮效果越好),接着反过来用刀在肉的表面划几刀。
3. 除了绍兴酒和大蒜以外,将所有的香料混合一起。先把绍兴酒均匀的涂抹在整块肉然后等2分钟才把香料和大蒜涂抹在肉(不要抹到猪皮上)
4. 最后猪皮面朝上(看图片)用铝箔包好放入冰箱冷藏腌最少8小时以上或隔夜。
5. 预热气炸锅的当时用1/4小茶匙的柠檬汁或醋抹在猪皮上,然后以160摄氏度烤30分钟再调到180摄氏度烤20-30分钟至到肉熟(轻敲猪皮有硬硬脆脆的感觉就可以了)。
