In her most recent delivery, my MIL included a packet of pork tenderloin, so I used it to make some pork chops. I had been craving for some good pork chops and had been thinking about those yummy ones we had during our Macao trip.
Since there were quite a few pieces in the pack, I decided to make two different recipes - the first one is this Macao style pork chop, the other one is a Beijing style Jing Dou pork chop (Click HERE for RECIPE ).
This Macao style pork chops is good with some steam rice, on a bed of noodles or eat it the way the Macanese do - sandwiched between toasty buttered bread and some deglazed onions. Very nice!

| Eat it Macao style.. |

| Or do as hungry-impatient me; just stuff it between an ordinary toasted bread. Yummy too! |
Macao Style Pork Chops
Serves 2
- 2 pieces of pork tenderloin (about 3/4 size of your palm)
- 1 tsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp maggi seasoning sauce
- 1/4 tsp chinese 5 spice powder
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp chinese cooking wine
- White pepper
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
1. Marinade the meat for at least 2 hours or overnight.
2. Heat a pan with some oil, and pan fry on medium heat for about 2-3 min on each side, depending on how thick the meat is. Remove and serve warm on rice, noodles or toasted sweet bun.
Super easy and tasty!
What is Maggi seasoning sauce?
ReplyDeleteIts the malaysian's equivalent of Worchestershire sauce, but at a fraction of the price :P
