Did you think that enjoying Roast Red Pork was a pastime that you’d miss on Keto? Think again! Our tender Low Carb Chinese BBQ Pork is spot on without any added sugar.

Keto Chinese BBQ Pork - "Char Siu Pork" - Simply Delicious!

Pork Butt (cut lengthways into 3 even pieces)

Low Carb Sweet Soy Sauce

Sesame Oil

Garlic Powder

Chinese Five Spice Powder

Red Food Coloring (optional)

In a small bowl, combine the Low Carb Sweet Soy, sesame oil, garlic, five spice and a few drops of food colouring (if using).

Place the 3 pieces of pork neck into a suitable dish for marinating - glass or ceramic will prevent the transfer of the coloring to the dish.

Pour half the marinade over the pork and, wearing foodsafe disposable gloves, massage the marinade into the pork.

Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge overnight. Store the remaining marinade in the fridge to be used for basting when the pork is cooking.

Preheat oven to 200C/390F.

Line a roasting tray with foil, add the roasting rack and spray lightly with oil.

Place the strips of pork onto the rack, baste with the leftover marinade and place into the oven.

Cook for 30-45 minutes (depending on the thickness of your pork), turning and basting with the marinade 2 or 3 times.

Remove from the oven and rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving with Asian greens or Cauliflower Rice.
