Ingredients

5cm thumb ginger, finely grated
3 cloves garlic, finely grated
1 tsp Chinese five-spice
2 tbs rice vinegar
16 Peking pancakes
2 Lebanese cucumber, cut into thin batons
Spring onions, sliced and curled in ice water
1 x Riverview Farms Pork roast, crackle removed (saved for later) and shred pork
1 tbs hoisin sauce (plus extra, to serve)

Method

In a small bowl, prepare the marinate for the pork; combine ginger, garlic, Chinese five-spice, Hoisin Sauce, and 2 tbs of rice vinegar. Mix well to combine.
Toss the shredded pork in the marinade coating well.
Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated shredded pork to the pan and stir-fry for a few minutes until it's heated through and slightly caramelised.
Warm the pancakes, there are a few options here; in a hot dry pan (not the classic method) or you can either steam the pancakes in a bamboo steamer or warm them in the microwave according to the package instructions.
Assemble. Top the warmed pancakes with thin layer of extra Hoisin Sauce, add a portion of the caramelised shredded pork in the centre of the pancake, then top with cucumber batons and the curled spring onions. Serve the Peking Pork Pancakes while they are still warm, and you can also serve the reserved crackling on the side for extra crunch and flavour.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining pancakes,and enjoy your homemade Riverview Farms Peking Pork Pancakes!
