Ingredients

  • 1 lb (500g) pork tenderloin or pork spare ribs, cut into 1/2-inch (1cm) thick slices
  • oil for deep frying
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds optional

Marinade:

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Sauce:

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons tomato ketchup
  • 1/2 tablespoon plum sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon sweet bean sauce or hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons black vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 pinch Chinese five-spice powder optional
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Pound pork slices with mallet, or with the back of a kitchen knife until tender. Set aside. In a bowl, mix the Marinade ingredients, add in pork slices, mix well, and marinade for 30 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the Sauce ingredients. You may add more or less sugar, or other sauce ingredients to your own liking. Set sauce mixture aside.
  • Heat up a wok with enough oil, deep-fry pork slices for 5 minutes, or until color changes to golden brown and slightly crispy. Dish up, drain with paper towels and set aside.
  • Bring sauce to a quick boil, add deep-fried pork, and stir until all the meat is well coated with sauce. Dish up and sprinkle the pork chops with some toasted sesame seeds. Serve over a bowl of hot steamed rice.

Notes

In the Chinese restaurants in the United States, 京都排骨 is made with pork tenderloin, which is exactly how I made this.
