Homemade Plum Sauce Pork

The first thing that comes to my mind is 'Plum Sauce Chicken' when I found the 'fresh' dried plum while making market visit at Lulu Hypermarket, Capsquare.

Homemade Plum Sauce is definitely taste better than those in bottled. I'm replacing chicken with pork in this recipe (I didn't buy chicken lor).

(A)
Small thumb size Ginger ~ sliced thin.
3 cloves of Garlic ~ finely chopped
1 small Onion ~ finely chopped
1 stalk of Lemongrass ~ finely chopped
70g of Dried Plum - deseed
1 tsp of oyster sauce
2 tbsp of Honey
A pinch of 5 spices powder

(B)
200g pork - cut into cube size about 3cm
Salt & pepper
A pinch of soda powder (this will soften the meat)
2 tsp of sesame oil

Marinate the pork with all the ingredient (B) for half an hour.

Turn on Airfryer, preheat at 180°C for 5 mins. Put in pork into Airfryer and cook for 20 mins under 180°C or until you see the pork becomes brown.

Now, let's go to the sauce part.

If you have a blender, you can blend in everything together.

Saute Ginger, Onion, Garlic and Lemongrass until, fragrance.

Add in oyster sauce, dried plum, 5 spice powder and water. Bring to boil. Turn to medium-low heat and let it boil for half hour. Add in honey, adjust taste and sweetness.

This should make about 1 bowl. Once the sauce is ready, spare some for this dish and move the balance to a jar for future use. Keep in fridge.

Fold in the pork and mix well.

Ready to serve.
