Baked Char Siew

I'm BACK!!! It's been awhile since i last update my blog and in fact, it's since i last cook or bake so didn't reali have anything to post. But i do have loads and loads of food pics which i gathered during my eating out session with friends.

Using my all time favourite recipe, i tried baking the char siew instead of my normal way of cooking.

Intersection of the char siew with juice running down while i slice it. Lovely!

I love my char siew with medium fats and lean meat. :-)
