About the Recipe
As one of Japan's favourite Chinese style dishes, Chinjao Rosu is right up there alongside Ma Po's Tofu and Chukadon. Lot's of non-Chinese restaurants serve it and you can buy a Chinjao Rosu sauce ready made off the shelf of most supermarkets. I usually use pork shoulder in this dish which I slice myself but any prepared pork slices should work just as well.
