Hong Kong-Style Baked Pork Chop Rice Recipe

For those interested in making Hong Kong-style baked pork chop rice, I found the following recipe online. I haven't tried making it myself, so I can't vouch for how good the recipe is. However, it is the only recipe I've found online so far.

The only tweaks I would suggest are:
  • Use leftover rice to make the fried rice....authentic Chinese style!
  • Top the sauce off with a little bit of cheese before popping into the oven...American or Cheddar will do

Enjoy!

It's not bad, but I would cut back on the salt for the marinade next time.

Actually, there are a lot of baked pork chop rice recipes online.
But yours is good too.

I prefer to use white rice as the base, fried rice is a bit too rich.
Just use white rice and put some chunks of butter into the rice, place the pork chops and sauce on top, top off with cheese and bake away.
