BARBECUED PORK 
1/4 c. soy sauce
2 tbsp. dry red wine
1 tbsp. brown sugar
1 tbsp. honey
2 tsp. red food coloring (optional)
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 green onion, cut in half
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 whole pork tenderloins (about 12 oz. each), trimmed
Green onion curls

1. Combine soy sauce, wine, sugar, honey, food coloring, cinnamon, onion and garlic in a large bowl. Add pork, turning tenderloins to coat completely. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour or overnight, turning meat occasionally.

2. Drain pork, reserving marinade. Place tenderloins on wire rack over a baking pan. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven, turning and basting often with reserved marinade, until cooked through, about 45 minutes.

3. Remove pork from oven; cool. Cut into diagonal slices. Garnish with Green Onion Curls.

GREEN ONION CURLS:

6-8 med. green onions
Cold water
10-12 ice cubes

1. Trim the bulbs (white part) from onions; reserve for another use. Trim remaining stems (green part) to 4 inch lengths.

2. Using sharp scissors, cut each section of green stems lengthwise into very thin strips down to beginning of stems. Cut 6-8 strips in each stem section.

3. Fill large bowl about half full of cold water. Add green onions and ice cubes. Refrigerate until onions curl, about 1 hour. Drain and use for garnish.
