Add a photoMy cousin Brett recently went to Bali for his honeymoon, so I decided to try the most famous Balinese dish for July 4th this summer. This pork came out soft and tasty like the meat you eat at a Luau, but with a delicious complexity of flavors from the chiles, garlic, ginger, lemongrass and turmeric. The process of slicing the roast in the middle and stuffing it with the marinade infused the entire roast with flavor. Our guests raved...and were still going back for more even after dessert! Make sure to serve the Balinese yellow rice. A wonderful combination!
Ингредиенты
- 1 boneless pork shoulder roast, about 3 pounds (or bone in roast, about 3.5 pounds)
- 4 large shallots or 2 small onions
- 4-8 Thai chiles or 2-4 jalapenos
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh ginger1 Tbsp chopped fresh turmeric or 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh galangal, or 1 Tbsp more ginger
- 3 stalks fresh lemongrass, trimmed and finely chopped or 3 large strips lemon zest
- 1.5 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice (about 1 large lime)
- 1 Tbsp firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 3 Tbsp vegetable oil
Инструкции
- Combine the shallots, chiles, garlic, ginger, turmeric, galangal, lemongrass, coriander, pepper, lime juice, sugar, salt, and 1 Tbsp vegetable oil in a mortar and pound to a smooth paste with the pestle, or puree in a blender or food processor to a smooth paste.
- Heat 2 Tbsp of oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add the spice paste and saute until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid splattering, and run your fan on high. Remove from pan and let cool. The paste can be made up to a day in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container.
- Trim the roast of excess fat, if any. Using a sharp knife, make a deep slice in the center of roast, starting and ending 3/4 inch from the ends, and cutting almost though to the other side of the roast. You should have a nice pocket about 6 inches long.
- Fill the pocket with spice paste and tie the roast back together with kitchen twine or pin it with metal skewers. Spread the remaining paste all over the outside of the roast. If any spice mixture remains, set it aside to add during the grilling process.
- If you have a rotisserie, this is probably the best way to cook the roast. Preheat your grill to high and cook for about 1.5 hours.
- I used the indirect cooking method. Move the charcoals to either side of the place where you plan to cook the roast, and place a drip pan in the middle. If you have a gas grill where the coals are not movable, either turn off the middle burner or just put a drip pan made of aluminum foil directly over the center burner. To make a foil drip pan, just tear 3 pieces of foil about 16 inches long, overlap them so they are the width you want, then fold the edges up about 2 inches to form a make-shift drip pan.
- After setting up the grill, preheat it on high. Turn the grill down and place the roast over the drip pan. Adjust heat or coals so the internal temperature rests at about 350 F. This will ensure nice browning without burning, and should result in a cook time of about 2 hours. Turn the meat occasionally during cooking so all sides get equally browned, and rub on additional spice mixture if any.
- Transfer roast to cutting board or platter and let stand for 10 minutes before removing strings and cutting into thin slices to serve.

This was great, thanks John. I had to change it slightly as we have just encountered the worse rainy week so far (for us winter has started), so bbq was out of the question. Instead I browned it and then cooked it in a slow cooker and served it with asian greens and basmati rice. I added a tsp of honey as it was a little salty, but that probably had something to do with the way it was cooked. I loved the balance of flavours and am sure it would work well with chicken too. Look forward to trying more of your recipes and even sticking to them.Этот рецепт был приготовлен/опробован мной!Содержит вариацию
