Bak Kwa/Long Yoke - Step by Step

BAK KWA a.k.a. LONG YOKE

The chinese new year celebration will not be the same if this 'bak kwa a.k.a. Long yoke is not served.





The recipe is here Bak Kwa/Long Yoke






Ground Pork



Ingredients for the marinate




More ingredients for the marinate





Mix marinate into ground meat and stir well to combine






Oil an upside-down baking tray









Use a chinese rice bowl to measure a bowl of marinated ground pork






Place ground pork in the middle of tray and top with a little oil to fasilitate movement
















Use your fingers and palm to spread the meat to the edges of baking tray












Spread ground pork is ready to go into preheated oven 175 f













Bake for 7 - 10 minutes. Meat should feel dry and will not break when pressed.














Meat is dried and ready to be cut. Use a pair of scissor to cut into big pieces.














Use a off-set spatula to loosen the base of cut meat and remove from baking tray.
















Stack them up and in this stage, wrap it in foil and it can be kept in the freezer.














Meat can be grilled over a charcoal stove or like me, it is too cold outside for grilling, so i either use the indoor griddle or pan fry.












Bak Kwa/Long Yoke are ready to enjoy. Pack in Greaseproof/parchment paper and then in an air-tight container and keep in fridge cos it will turn moldy if they are not grilled well.
