Step 1
Prick the meat all over with sharp objects like bamboo skewers (to help it absorb flavor and cook faster during roasting). Rub with salt and MSG, place in a container, add cooking wine, scallion, and ginger, then marinate for about 2 hours.

Step 2
Place the marinated meat on a baking tray and roast in the oven, taking care to prevent it from burning at all times. If the color becomes uneven during roasting, cover the darker areas with vegetable leaves and continue roasting. When the meat is nearly done, brush it with sesame oil, and keep roasting until the color is even and the meat is fully cooked. Slice before serving and arrange on a plate.
