This is the best Char Sui Chinese roast pork sauce I’ve had. The original recipe<\/a> is from one of my favorite recipe sites. She’s paleo which means I can eat most of what she makes. Her cookbook<\/a> is beautiful!<\/p>\n

As with every recipe, I tweak it with what I have on hand. So here’s my version of NomNomPaleo’s Chinese roast pork marinade and sauce.<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup any kind of jam – my fav is apricot, but I’ve also used my homemade orange marmalade<\/p>\n

1\/4 cup soy sauce<\/p>\n

3 Tablespoons tomato paste – I cheat and use ketchup or cook up some fresh tomatoes if I don’t have tomato paste<\/p>\n

1 Tablespoon of almond butter – this is the game changer in this recipe, makes all the difference, don’t skip this ingredient<\/p>\n

1 Tablespoon honey – optional if you want to keep down sugar, I skip it for myself, but add it if it’s for other people<\/p>\n

1 teaspoon fish sauce<\/p>\n

1\/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder – I add a little more because I like the flavor<\/p>\n

1\/2 teaspoon ginger powder – I add more of this too<\/p>\n

1 teaspoon of salt – you can add more if you’re not on low salt restrictions<\/p>\n

Heat in a pot to blend everything nice and smooth, cool and marinade the pork according to the recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I only put sauce recipes here to remind myself. You’ll have to go to NomNomPaleo<\/a> for the rest of the cooking instructions. The recipe works great, comes out just like her pictures, no lie!<\/p>\n
