If you are not able to find maltose at your local grocery store or online, you can substitute with a little brown sugar by placing 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of water into a small pot. Heat the brown sugar on low heat just until the brown sugar is warm and completely dissolved.
The original recipe is below.
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork butt (cut into 4 pieces)
- 3 clove garlic (finely chopped)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cooking oil
Char Siu Glaze:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons maltose
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1 1/2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Chinese rose wine (玫瑰露酒)
- 3 dashes white pepper powder
- 3 drops red coloring (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
