This year, Papa very gungho on celebrating Chinese New Year. Borong mandarin oranges la, then some more kept reminding Mamarazzi to buy Chinese Leek and some auspicious vegetable to bring back to Trengganu.
Aiyo....Monday asked Mamarazzi whether can find Roast Pork or not. Alamak....near Chinese New Year leh...Roast Pork price jumping higher that a frog leh.
Wokay la wokay la....Mamarazzi said lets go Jaya Grocer. Bought two strips of Pork belly.
While on the way home, she google. Aiyak...need wine ah..tarak wine....okay...again her pakai hentam recipe . Looked at various blogs and "agak-agak"(guess) the ingredients la.
Chopped garlic, 5 spices powder, salt and white pepper.
Boiled the two strips of pork belly to get rid of the smell and also make it easier to poke holes on the skin.
After that she was like a mad woman used a fork kept poking holes on the top of the skin. The more holes the better it seems. Then rubbed salt on top of the skin. Balance, rub the rest of the ingredients onto the meat.
Put the whole thing into the fridge and let it dry .
The next morning she woke up 5am and decided to roast the pork. I was having fever the whole night. She can;t sleep. So might as well do something productive , right?
Aiyak....a bit burnt but....not bad la considering that it's a pakai hentam recipe. The roast pork was a tad too salty . Too much salt but nevermind la ...coz going to stir fry with chinese leek and also to fry noodles..the saltiness won't be felt la.
As for me...the next morning I layu liao lor....fever....so Mamarazzi said okay la...skip school la. Haiz...my teacher sure think that I purposely ponteng school. I was quite worried . But the mamarazzi said go see doctor and get a medica chit so the teacher sure won;t punish me la.
Make roast pork also can agak agak hentam hentam. Mamarazzi really keng! Got MC sure teacher will not be suspicious of Small Kucing missing school.
ReplyDeleteCan hentam la the roast pork
DeleteNot bad .... you make me feel like having roast pork rice tomorrow!
ReplyDeletetomorrow? why not tonight? *evil grinz*
DeleteHope you are well

Am well....only Mamarazzi konk out. Hence didnt blog so long
DeleteFuiyoh, mamarazzi's roast pork looks like those selling outside one leh.. Looks good.. Neh, I know they sell roast pork powder outside, supermarket also got, buy roast pork, rub the powder, then bake.. Kaotim.. Hou senang ger wor..
ReplyDeletethe powder is the same thing la...garlic powder mixed with 5 spice powder and sat...maybe some MSG LOL
DeleteMmmmm....I love roast pork. :)
ReplyDeleteSo yummy especially when the skin is still crunchy
DeleteWahhhhhhhh!!!! It sure looks good. The burnt parts would be the nicest. Very fragrant!
ReplyDeleteLOL.....but people say cannot eat too much of the burnt part
DeletePaparazzi so gung-ho about bringing all the best goodies to celebrate CNY back home in KT with Ah Mah ke?? what a filial son Paparazzi is, Small Kucing also must learn this from Paparazzi okay?? then Mamarazzi will be the most blessed mommy in the world.. :)
ReplyDeleteYou too leh.....get angpau packets for your dad to give out angpau. Good son too :)
Deletehaha, no lah that one small matter.. next year Uncle SK give Mamarazzi angpow packets okay??
Deletegot "isi" punya or not :p
Deletehaiyoh all things last minute ah?? not only price hike, but approaching CNY many things also not available and even got money also can get leh.. next time must get Paparazzi to list down all the things early early so that Mamarazzi can have enough time to prepare mah.. also won't be kelam kabut during the last minutes, and we all tend to be grumpy when the last minutes are a mess also.. agree?? :)
ReplyDeletebut roast pork if buy early also not fresh...how.....susah like that....hmm....lucky Jaya Grocer didnt up their price of pork ..
Deletelike that ah, then Mamarazzi better learn to make lor, so that Paparazzi can book her early early :p
Deleteuse pakai hentam method lo :p
Deletefuyoh, Mamarazzi's hentam siew yoke!! haha.. looks good and "yao ban yao ngan" woh actually.. except the 4th photo reminds Uncle SK about apam balik only, hehe.. oooh, too salty yeah?? nvm lah, siew yoke is meant to be a little salty mah, next time use less salt lah.. and the skin a little burnt?? nvm lah, like that baru nicer leh.. hehe!! :)
ReplyDeleteMuhahaha...ya like you said before...looks like apam balik at first glance
Deletepoor thing Small Kucing feeling under the weather right before CNY.. if sakit then don't go to school lah, sure unproductive and scared will spread to other classmates also.. if no go see doctor to get MC, I think the school also accept signed letter from the parents explaining why Small Kucing was absent right?? :)
ReplyDeleteBut but if dont go school i scare teacher scold leh. think i purposely ponteng. Even the school bus aunty asked wahh...ownself declare school holiday ah
Deleteno need to scared as long as Mamarazzi proved that you are not fit to school.. muahahahaha!! like that macam Dr Mamarazzi already hor?? :D
DeleteNext o CNY eve wor.....
DeleteWah the roast pork looks really good! Boiling it first really makes it easier to poke holes? That's a smart idea! But will it make the skin harder to dry afterwards, hence not crispy?
ReplyDeletenope...it become crispy when in the oven. Can it the skin goes pop pop pop
DeleteYour mama very 厉害，made roasted pork...
ReplyDeleteThank you thank you
DeleteI am so sorry you are sick! What does the doctor say is wrong? Did he give you medicine?
ReplyDeleteYea....was having fever and flu. The doctor gave me med and now I have recovered fully
DeleteGet well soon!!
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeleteWahh..super LIKE this roasted pork. The crackling is nicely done. Good job wor.
ReplyDeleteI think the roasted pork looks like it turned out great. I don't eat a lot of pork.. usually just for New Years.
ReplyDeleteOh you also have pork during new year ya..that's great
DeleteI hope you are now feeling better.

ReplyDeleteDunno oh...last time Mamarazzi no need buy MC. Just call Doctor friend and ask for MC LOL...shhhh shhh
DeleteNeed medical chit to apply sick leave for kids study primary school. Macam going to work. Haha. Cannot simply declare sick leave ourselves.
ReplyDeleteThe roast pork look good. I also pakai hentam recipe twice and the taste was good but the skin too hard to chew. Have not been trying since then. Hahaha.
cannot leh....if declare Mamarazzi have to write grandmother story to the cikgu liao
DeleteNot bad wor the siew yoke! I always thought have to use a big piece to do it. Now I see Mamarazzi use those pork belly strips, I also gatal-gatal want to try :)
