because i still have frozen wontons (they’re getting frostbitten!) in the freezer, i felt like wonton noodles. which calls for char siew, or it wouldn’t be like wonton noodles at all. therefore google proved useful again as i sieved through the numerous cooking blogs and finally found something idiot-proof.

what i love about this is that the preparation is so easy, just throw in the few marinades and leave the meat to sit there for 4 hours while i work on my assignments. and it doesn’t require a bloody oven! okay, maybe the cooking time of half an hour isn’t exactly good, but it’s still quick and easy considered to other char siew recipes.

i randomly chose a long strip of meat labelled “pork fillet” and which resembled a piece of char siew because i have no idea how 五花肉 looks like. i think it turned out to be the right cut of meat anyway.

so there, my wonton noodles for dinner!

yeah, it looks brown cos i’m not gonna invest in red food colouring. what am i gonna do with the remaining? make red half-boiled eggs everyday? as long as it tastes the same, i’d eat it even it’s blue in colour.
