Instructions
Cut the skin off the pork, but leave as much fat as possible. Fill a large sauce pan with water, add the star anise, the 5 spice powder and the pork, and bring to the boil over a medium heat. Simmer for 40 minutes, then remove from the heat. Allow to cool.
Add the garlic cloves, sugar, water, black bean sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, dates, sesame oil, five spice powder and chili powder into a food processor, and blitz until a smooth paste.
Remove the pork from the cool broth, and place on a cutting board. Cut into 8 strips/lengths. Place into a shallow dish, and cover with half of the Hoi sin sauce. Place into the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to marinate.
You can either fry the pork over a medium heat in a little oil in a large frying pan, or place on a baking sheet in a high (200C, 180C fan, gas mark 6) oven. Either way will take approx 20-30 minutes, until the pork is blackened and golden.
Heat a large pan of water over a high heat. Add the noodles to the boiling water, and cook for the time indicated on the packet.
Heat a wok over a high heat, add the vegetable oil to the wok, then toss in the vegetables, and stir fry until just cook. Keep on a high heat and move them around as they cook, you don't want the vegetables to steam.
Drain the noodles, add to the wok with the remaining Hoi sin sauce, stir through remove from the heat.
Pile the noodle stir fry high into four bowls. Serve two slices of pork over each dish.
