Recipe makes for 6 Servings

2 tablespoons dry sherry

2 slices fresh ginger root

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

1/2 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder

4 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon white sugar

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

2 tablespoons ketchup

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 1/2 pounds pork shoulder roast

1 tablespoon honey


Directions:

1. In a bowl, stir together sherry, ginger root, oyster sauce, five-spice powder, soy sauce, white sugar, sugar, hoisin sauce, ketchup and cinnamon. Make sure all of the ingredients are properly integrated with one another.

2. Cut pork into 5x2 inch strips. Place strips flat in a shallow baking dish. Pour your marinade over the pork strips. Let pork marinate at least 6 hours in refrigerator. (To save you time, you can make it in the evening the day before and marinate overnight)

3. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Drain the pork; make sure to reserve some marinade. Mix the honey and 3 tablespoon reserved marinade in a small bowl; set aside. 

4. Fill a shallow roasting pan with water and place in bottom of oven. Carefully place pork strips on a roasting rack above roasting pan so all sides are exposed to heat. (If you don't have a roasting rack, insert the curved end of an S-shaped hook, paper clip, or drapery hook in pork strips and hang them from the top shelf.)

5. Roast for 30 minutes. After the 30 minutes, baste pork strips with honey mixture. Roast 15 minutes and baste again. Roast for another 10 minutes or until pork strips are crisp and golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.

Best served over rice.
