If you ask a Hong Konger what food they crave for during a long trip, they probably won’t answer “dim sum”, “fried rice” or any well-known Chinese food, but Siu Mei!
Siu Mei includes a variety of meat, for example, BBQ pork, roast goose, chicken in soy sauce, roast pork belly, etc. When you see a whole goose or some red pork straps hanging behind the glass of the restaurant, then you are at the right place.
The most representable Siu Mei is Cha Siu (BBQ pork). The pork is first marinated in Cantonese barbecue sauce and honey for around 2 hours. Then, it is hung on top of the fire and barbecued for 45 minutes.
A good Cha Siu should be half fat, half lean, with slightly charred edges. The first bite begins with the sweetness of honey, then the pleasant taste of pork grease and a hint of caramel(from the charred edge).
Cha Siu is a perfect match with soft rice and fried eggs. The best way to enjoy the dish is to shove everything in one bite – the tender Cha Siu with rice mixed with runny egg yolks and soy sauce! Believe me, you will definitely fall in love with Siu Mei if you give it a chance!
