Cantonese Roast ROAST

Photo - Makansutra

A typical Cantonese roasts stall will offer char siew (sweet barbecued pork), siu yok (crackling roast pork) and roast duck, served with a bowl of steaming white rice or noodles with a sweet hoisin sauce, vinegared chilli or sambal. You order a basic plate with one or all the meats – it’s your choice. Often, such stalls offer hearty Cantonese double boiled soups like winter melon chicken, salted vegetables with pork ribs, ginseng chicken, or watercress vegetables with lean pork, etc. It completes a meal here.
