Babi Panggang

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 1 kg pork
• 1 onion(s), chopped
• 8 tbsp soy sauce, sweetened kecap manis
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped (to taste)
• 6 tbsp oil
• 2 lemons, juice
• 3 tsp tomato paste, or some ketchup, 1 jar mung bean sprouts, drained
• salt and pepper
• Ginger root, peeled/finely chopped (if you like)

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Cut the meat into goulash-sized cubes. Mix all ingredients except the mung bean sprouts and the meat into the marinade. Let the meat marinate for at least 30 minutes (longer is better; overnight in the refrigerator is also good!). Brush a baking sheet with fat (oil or margarine; for a “diet option”: use non-stick aluminum foil), add the drained mung bean sprouts, then add the meat and marinade. Bake at approximately 180°C-200°C on the middle rack (top and bottom heat) for about 1-1.5 hours, turning occasionally. Serve with rice. Bamboo shoots, carrot sticks, broccoli, mushrooms, celery, etc. can be used instead of or in addition to the mung bean sprouts. Then however (e.g. with Mu-Err or mushrooms please do not cook them from the beginning so that they do not become lumps) It also tastes good with turkey or beef, then keep an eye on the cooking time accordingly.
