Treatment

1. Pre-heat oven at 150°C.
2. Mix the honey with water and set aside.
3. Mix all the ingredients (except honey water and white sesame seed) thoroughly in a big bowl. Blend them in one direction with spatula, and until the mixture turn gooey.
4. Marinate for at least 4 hours (or refrigerate overnight).
5. Place a large piece of parchment paper on a flat surface and add ¼ (fist size) of the marinated meat mixture onto it.
6. Place another piece of parchment paper on top of the mixture and roll it flat with a rolling pin until it is 2-3mm thick. Remove the top parchment paper and shape the mixture into an even rectangle.
7. Transfer the mixture (together with the parchment paper on the bottom) onto a large baking tray and bake the mixture in oven at 150°C for 15 minutes.
8. Remove from oven. Brush a layer of honey on the meat and sprinkle some white sesame seeds. Bake in oven at 200°C for another 5 minutes.
9. Repeat step 8 for the other side.
10. Use a scissors or pizza cutter to cut the bak kwa into pieces. Then, it’s ready to serve.

Cooking tips:

• Blend meat mixture till gooey, but do not over blend as it will affect the texture.
• Constantly check the oven to adjust timing and temperature, to prevent over baking, especially after brushing with honey.
