Star Anise and cranberries make a savory and sweet East-West pair in this week's helping of SIMPLY MING. Chef Ming Tsai prepares an all-in-one Cranberry Red Roast Braised Pork Shoulder, a twist on the classic Chinese red roast preparation. Proving no meal is complete without dessert, Ming creates a Hot Apple-Cranberry Sundae that will make you forget about the traditional chocolate sauce! Then Ming shares a recipe that can double as a breakfast pastry or dessert when he makes a Cranberry-Asian Pear Star Anise Cake. Guest chef and renowned mixologist Tony Abou-Ganim visits the studio kitchen and uses the East-West flavors to prepare Fenberry Cobbler, Ming Martini and Cranberry Sparkler, a fabulous assortment of cocktails!
