Roast Pork Shoulder

This week have watched 2 different cooking shows to make Roast Pork. Saturday morning, what is in my mind - go to the supermarket get a Pork shoulder or leg.


It is a very easy cooking method. Preparation less than 10 minus, put salt all over pork skin. I also put some rosemary inside the meat and lemon zest on the top of the skin to add some favor.
I put some water in the tray as learning from one of the cooking show.

According to the package, 1 hour 200 degree for 1 kg pork, it is quiet accurate.

But my pork shoulder is wrapped by net, it seems take longer time to make the pork fully cook.


Pork skin become crackling  the meat is very soft and juicy.
It is not much different Hong Kong style BBQ pork (肉), especially the skin part. I haven't eaten it for at least 5 years.

I also pan-fired shredded cabbage for side-dishes.
Very simple- Heat up a little bit oil, add curry powder and turmeric first in order to bring up the spices favour and then add shredded cabbage and pinch of salt. When the cabbage become soft, it is done. I learnt it from one of my Indian's friend.


Turmeric is one of my favor - in summer time, I would boil rice together with turmeric and eat it with yogurt mixed with few drops of lemon juice.
