Char siu (also spelled as char siew) is hands down the most beloved pork dish in Chinese cuisine. I’m sure many of you have been tempted by these beautifully roasted BBQ pork strips glistening in Chinese restaurant windows. I’ve shared a version using the oven before—you can check out that video right here. Today, we gonna make it in an air fryer because air fryer is actually a better cooking method. It’s quick, easy, and delivers results just as delicious as what you’d find at a restaurant!
