Hoisin Pork & Crispy Pancakes

This was a component of my meal prep this week, I had so much fun experimenting and adapting these recipes to see how the flavours worked. I'm totally in love with the result. This is also a delicious way to use the Stella Slaw recipe I posted earlier this week. This would be a scrumptious dinner or a fulfilling lunch (like I've been having)! 
Now, before we begin let me clarify something! I understand that hoisin sauce isn't gluten free. However, with the minimal amount of gluten in it, I've found that I haven't had any sort of reaction. However, if you know that you are particularly intolerant I have included a Gluten Free Hoisin Substitute which (although not exactly the same) is just as delicious.

Cook: 15 minutes

Crispy Pancake

Meat
1kg Mince (your choice of meat) pork is my absolute favourite however mince and chicken are just as delicious.

Stella Super Slaw from my previous blog post

Simmer Sauce & Dressing 
Combine the following:
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
2 tbsp soy
1 tbsp sesame oil 
2 tsp sweetener (I love brown sugar or honey)

Add 1/2 the mixture to your meat while simmering, reserving the other half as a dressing when plating up. ​

Gluten Free Hoisin Sauce Alternative (from thankheavens.com.au) 
Use this recipe as a direct replacement for the simmer sauce & dressing
Combine: 8 tbsp GF soy sauce (tamari), 4 tbsp crunchy peanut butter, 4 tsp rice wine vinegar, 2 clove minced garlic, 4 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp crushed chilli

Garnishes
  • coriander
  • fried shallots
 
​Method:
  1. To begin, heat a large pan on the stove top with 1 tbsp of olive oil. In the mean time, combine the simmer sauce ingredients. 
  2. Place the mince meat into the pan and simmer until separated. Add the simmer sauce and stir until the mince is fully cooked and combined.   
  3. While mince is cooking through, in a medium sized bowl add all of the pancake ingredients and combine using a whisk until smooth (alternatively, use a food processor for this step however I haven’t seen it as being necessary). 
  4. Heat a small pan with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add 1/4 of pancake mixture to the pan and cook each pancake for a few minutes each side or until golden and crisp. Cover each pancake to maintain its warmth.   
  5. Remove meat from the heat. To plate up, place a pancake on each plate. Top with the slaw and then the meat. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the meat and garnish with coriander and fried shallots. Serve.
