叉燒
叉燒, pronounced "char siu," is a popular Cantonese dish made from marinated pork. The meat is typically seasoned with a mixture of honey, five-spice powder, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce, giving it a sweet and savory flavor. It is often roasted until the outside is caramelized and slightly charred, resulting in a tender and juicy interior.
This dish is commonly served with rice or noodles and can also be used as a filling in buns or pastries. 叉燒 is a staple in many Chinese restaurants and is enjoyed by people around the world for its rich taste and appealing appearance.
