&lt;p class="zemanta-img zemanta-action-dragged" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pork_dsc06559.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c9/Pork_dsc06559.jpg/300px-Pork_dsc06559.jpg" alt="Three halves of pork being delivered" style="border: medium none; display: block;" width="296" height="83"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Image via &lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pork_dsc06559.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rich ‘&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_cuisine" title="Chinese cuisine" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;Chinese&lt;/a&gt;’ &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pork_loin" title="Pork loin" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;Pork Loin&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ok, I’m not chinese, and this recipe is a polite nod to the wonder that is chinese food. (Nom noms). Its really good and simple.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="zemanta-img zemanta-action-dragged" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 250px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3367/3334043338_a35383cda6_m.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3367/3334043338_a35383cda6_m.jpg" alt="garlic and ginger infused soy sauce" style="border: medium none; display: block;" width="240" height="180"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Put pan on stove and put two cups of dark&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soy_sauce" title="Soy sauce" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;soy sauce&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;in the pan at least. One chopped bulb of garlic. Yes I said a whole bulb at least. A good pinch of powdered ginger, or finely chopped fresh ginger, some white pepper, &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_juice" title="Lemon juice" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;lemon juice&lt;/a&gt;, one or two red &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chili_pepper" title="Chili pepper" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;chillies&lt;/a&gt; and some runny honey. Let this marinade heat until it simmers gently. Then take it off the heat and let it cool and infuse. Once it has cooled it will thicken a bit. If you want it really thick use a bit of slaked cornflour while its simmering to thicken it up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add the chunks or medallions of pork loin to it ONCE IT IS COOL. Then leave in the fridge overnight and skewer and cook accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also works as a brush-on marinade. Lovely with King prawns, chicken, spare ribs, sausages, loads of stuff. Will work well on already cooked meats, and will flavour duck very nicely. Nom nom nom nom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Pork loin and Coriander.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chop a load of fresh &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriander" title="Coriander" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;coriander&lt;/a&gt; and fresh garlic. Mix in a little &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_salt" title="Sea salt" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;sea salt&lt;/a&gt;, lemon juice and light soy. Coat the outside of the pork loin. Leave in the fridge for as long as possible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then slice and cook.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Honey and Mustard.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just that. Nom nom nom nom nom nom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add garlic to it as well. More nom’s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Spicy Lime, Black Pepper and Garlic.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="zemanta-img zemanta-action-dragged" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:HotPeppersinMarket.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/HotPeppersinMarket.jpg/300px-HotPeppersinMarket.jpg" alt="Scotch bonnet (C." style="border: medium none; display: block;" width="300" height="213"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Image via &lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:HotPeppersinMarket.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This will almost do a ‘Jamaican Jerk’ style dish. Just as the name says, mix the ingredients. If you want heat then add a &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotch_bonnet_%28pepper%29" title="Scotch bonnet (pepper)" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;scotch bonnet pepper&lt;/a&gt; to marinade with the meat. DO NOT COOK THE PEPPER.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unless of course you have no love of your own &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastrointestinal_tract" title="Gastrointestinal tract" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank"&gt;digestive tract&lt;/a&gt; and really like spending time spurting devils fire from your own rectum.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nuff said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I guess the prozac I’m on wont do any good anyway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just joking!!! I still can’t believe my local baker sells Jack Daniel’s and decent bubbly!!!&lt;/p&gt;
