Simple as fuck to make.
Take chicken, flour. Mix.
Bake for 40 mins till golden and gorgeous.
Cover in a Franks hot sauce, Tabasco, Butter sauce, serve.
Also, not pictured, made up some Coke Marinaded Wings,
marinade as mentioned before-30 mins baking.
They were fucking lish.
thanks for all the kind comments.
just finished off the last of the char siu pork in a stir fry.
making that again for sure....
Here's a rough recipe:
make the char siu sauce, or buy it in pre made form- this time I did the latter, but the last time I char siu'd (not bao) I used this:
3 tablespoons maltose (you can find this at most Asian grocery stores)
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons sweet soy sauce
1 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons sesame oil
half a head of garlic, peeled and sliced
(you should add some red fermented bean curd also)
the best recipe is a mix of this and the one on youtube.
Slice the pork (shoulder or butt) into cm-1/2 in slices and maybe 5 cm across, marinade overnight, and roast at around 220 for 40 mins over a pan of 1/2 water, turning and basting every 10 (in practice it can take less time than 40 mins to get the flavor/ color right)
This link has the dough recipe:

Super white flour is best though plain also works.
