A flavorful and tender pork fillet recipe with a sweet and savory glaze, perfect for a family dinner.
Combine the soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the honey is well mixed into the soy sauce for an even flavor.
Place the pork fillet in the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Marinating overnight will enhance the flavor penetration into the meat.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the pork inside.
Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the pork in an ovenproof dish.
Use a dish that fits the pork snugly to prevent the marinade from spreading too thin.
Roast the pork in the oven for 35-40 minutes, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade.
Basting keeps the pork moist and adds extra flavor to the surface.
Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute within the meat, making it juicier.
Pour the reserved marinade into a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Simmer for a few minutes until slightly thickened.
Boiling the marinade ensures it is safe to consume as a glaze.
Slice the pork and serve it over steamed rice, drizzling the glaze on top.
Arrange the slices neatly for an appealing presentation.
