Khao Moo Dang ( Barbecue Pork on Rice)


                                                                 Khao Moo Dang

Moo Dang means red pork. This dish my husband always ask me to make it for him. My kids can eat it too, because the sauce is sweet and not spicy at all. I like to make a lot of barbecue pork and keep some in a freezer. When ever we want to eat Kaw Moo Dang then I just put the pork in a microwave. That will safe me a lot of time. Just make sure when you warm it up cover the pork with a wet towel so it won't dry.

Ingredients
Pork shoulder blade or pork tenderloin  3 pound ( Cut the pork 4x5 inches)
Garlic 7-8  cloves
Chinese Five Spice 1 Tablespoon
Soy sauce 1/2 cup
Grounded black pepper 1 Teaspoon
Food coloring - Red  optional

Directions

Mix all of the marinade ingredients together. Put the pork in a big bowl. Marinade the pork for at least two hours or over night.
Heat the oven to 400 F and bake for 30 minutes or until cooked. Or you can cook it on a grill. Thin slide the pork before you serve.

P.s. For left over sauce after you put the pork on a rack. Save it to make sweet sauce.

corn starch 2 tablespoons

Mix corn starch with water. Put left over sauce in a sauce pan. Heat it up until it gets hot and slowly pour the corn starch mixed in the pan. Keep stirring until it thick. Set a side.
