Char siu, or Chinese barbecued pork, is a sweet and savory Cantonese classic.
The name of the dish literally translates to “fork-roasted,” in reference to how it was traditionally cooked: skewered onto a long fork and roasted in an oven or over an open fire. My version is not as complicated, and can easily be made at home.
