Jamaican Chinese Black Bean Steamed Pork Recipe (Jhu Nuke Bat)

This Black Bean Steamed Pork recipe was handed down to me from my father. A true Hakka-style dish that tastes even better the next day. Easy and tasty – even addictive once you’ve tasted it! To give it a Jamaican flavor add a little scotch bonnet pepper.

Ingredients

• Pork shoulder, butt, leg or belly, with fat retained
• 1 Sheet salted black bean (new sheet)
• Ginger
• Fresh garlic
• Soy sauce
• Dried orange peel, soaked (Go Pei)
• Brown sugar
• Sherry (optional)
• Oil for browning
• Optional – A few slices of scotch bonnet pepper ( include the seeds for more heat)

Method

1. Season pork with black bean, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, orange peel, brown sugar and sherry , if desired.
2. Brown in oil to seal in juices

1. Steam at least 2 hours, or more, until pork tears easily with chopsticks.
