Mix all the marinade ingredients, apart from the extra honey, in a large glass container.
Place the pork in the container, covering it with the marinade. Leave in the fridge overnight.
Before cooking, remove pork from the fridge and allow to rest for 1 hr.
Preheat the oven to 160ºC. Line a large oven dish with foil and place a grill rack on top.
Reserving the marinade in the container, carefully place the pork fillets on the rack, leaving a space between each strip of meat. Place in the oven and roast for 25 mins.
In a saucepan, heat the remaining marinade with the extra honey until slightly thickened.
Dress the pork on both sides with another layer of marinade. Roast for another 20 mins. If the marinade drippings are starting to burn on the foil, pour some water into the bottom of the tray.
Dress the pork with marinade again and turn the pork over. Roast for 15 mins. Dress the pork with a final layer of marinade. Turn the oven up to 190ºC and roast for a further10 mins, or until the marinade has caramelised.
Allow the meat to rest for 15 mins before slicing. Serve over rice, with a salad, or try our Char Siu Bao Buns for something a bit different - recipe here.
Char siu is a super tasty Cantonese roast pork and this recipe shows you how to make the marinade yourself - it's truly easy and so yummy!
