Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Coat the pork cubes with the plum and hoisin sauce. Transfer to a foil-lined tray; roast for 30 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, toss the cucumber ribbons with the rice wine vinegar. Leave to marinate while the pork cooks. Then, fold a third of a cucumber ribbon onto a cocktail stick, leaving the rest free.
  3. Add 1 chilli round to each cocktail stick, followed by a piece of pork. Wrap the rest of the cucumber around the pork and fold over to secure on the skewer.
