  • 1 1/2 lb Boneless leg of pork, pork butt or possibly loin
  • 2 x Green onions, crushed
  • 3 x Quarter-sized slices fresh ginger, crushed
  • 2 x Garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1/4 c. Shao-Hsing rice wine, or possibly dry sherry
  •     Fresh coriander sprigs for garnish
  • 1 tsp Finely chopped garlic (about 2 small cloves)
  • 1/2 tsp Fresh chopped ginger (about 2 quarter-sized slices)
  • 1 Tbsp. Dark soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. Light soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Warm pepper oil, or possibly to taste
  • 1 tsp Asian sesame oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Rice vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp. Chopped fresh coriander or possibly green onion

Directions

  1. Fresh ham or possibly a fairly fat cut of pork is traditionally used for this recipe, but boneless lean pork loin makes a delicious and leaner substitute. For a nontraditional presentation, serve the pork with grilled asparagus spears, Asian eggplant and/or possibly zucchini slices. Or possibly, arrange the slices on a bed of watercress with strips of roasted pepper and serve as a first course salad. Or possibly, simply alternate the pork with thin rounds of chilled cucum- ber.
  2. Bring the water to a boil in a large pot, then add in the pork, green onions, ginger, garlic and wine. Bring to a boil again. Skim off the scum which rises to surface. Cover, reduce heat low and simmer for 45 min.
  3. When the meat is done, half fill a large pan with cool water and ice cubes.
  4. Remove the meat from the pot and immediately plunge it into the ice water; let sit for 20 min to hard up the meat and juices. Remove pork, pat dry, cover and chill till thoroughly chilled, at least 2 to 3 hrs, or possibly overnight.
  5. Garlic Sesame Sauce: Mix together all ingredients.
  6. To serve: Cut the meat crosswise into paper-thin slices (no thicker than 1/8 inch) and arrange in a circular pattern on a plate. Serve sauce on the side or possibly drizzle it over the pork. Garnish with fresh coriander eaves.
