THE CUISINE OF HAWAII IS A fusion of many di erent foods brought by immigrants to the islands. Particularly Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Polynesian and Amer- ican all weave throughout the history of island food. I love the idea of cultural fusion in the foods I prepare. It’s a recipe for exciting the taste buds. So, if island- style luaus, Mai Tais and sandy feet aren’t on your travel agenda, then bring it to you. Who says you can’t cook in a grass skirt?
Paci c Rim Pork with Coconut Cilantro Lime Rice
3 1/2-4 pounds locally produced bone in pork shoulder roast
1 cup passion fruit preserves (peach or apricot would be ne substitutes or puree 1 cup of pineapple)
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 Tbs. chopped garlic
1/8 cup grated fresh ginger
1 Tbs. sriracha (Asian chili paste) or
more to taste
Mix the preserves, soy, garlic, ginger
and chili paste in a bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup and set the rest aside. Make small slits all over the roast with a paring knife and
rub the pork all over with salt, pepper and the 1/2 cup of passion fruit sauce. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 min- utes before roasting and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put meat in a roasting pan tted with a rack and roast uncovered, about 3 1/2 hours. The last hour of roast- ing baste every 15 minutes with reserved sauce. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. For less attentive preparation you can put all ingredients in a crock pot and set on high for 5 hours!
For the Rice
2 cups jasmine rice, or any long grain white rice
1 (14 oz.) can coconut milk
1 1/2 cups water
1 tsp. salt
Zest of one lime (lime reserved) 1/2 cup cilantro
Sliced green onions
Put rice, coconut milk, water, salt and
lime zest in large saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil, then down to a simmer, for 15 to 20 minutes until rice is tender. Flu with fork and stir in cilantro and squeeze the juice of reserved lime. Serve with roasted pork and garnish with green onions. Enjoy!
