Recipe Inspiration

Ingredients...

2kg Pork shoulder, skin removed and fat trimmed

50g Honey

50g Asian Korean Style Base

50g Ginger root, peeled and sliced

100g Red onion, peeled and finely sliced

5 Cloves of garlic, peeled

200ml Water

600g Cooked Basmati rice (optional)

30-40 Small gem lettuce leaves

10 Radishes, thinly sliced

200g Carrots – Julienne cut

50g Sesame seeds

50g Coriander, chopped

100g Spring onions, finely sliced

Method...

1. Mix the honey and Asian Korean Style Base together and rub the marinade all over the pork (this can be done the day before). Refrigerate pork until required.

2. Pre-heat oven to 140°C. Place pork in a suitable tray and add the ginger, onion, garlic and water. Cover with foil and cook for approximately 3 hours or until thoroughly cooked, basting occasionally with the cooking juices.

3. Once the pork is cooked, remove from the oven to rest. Strain off the cooking juices into a suitable pan removing the aromats. Gently reduce the cooking juices by two thirds.

4. While the juices are reducing, shred the pork on a suitable tray and pour the reduced cooking juices over the pork and mix thoroughly.

5. To serve place portions of pork, rice, kimchi, radish, carrots and spring onions into the cups of gem lettuce on a suitable platter.

6. Top with fresh coriander and sesame seeds.
