In the past few years Vietnamese food has become more and more popular around the world. Food lovers may have tried the two best known Vietnamese dishes – spring rolls and bread rolls. Rice, noodles, fresh vegetable and herbs all play big roles in Vietnamese food, making it one of the healthiest cuisines in the world. 

In Vietnam you’ll discover one unmistakable fact: Vietnamese people love noodles. They eat them every day, sometimes for every meal. Vietnamese noodles are made from a few basic ingredients, the most common being rice, wheat and mung beans, but a whole sub-cuisine is built on these basics.

Vietnamese Grilled Pork (Thit Nuong)Sponsored •

4 To 6 Servings

This sweetsavory pork is most often served with steamed jasmine rice and a side salad dressed with a little nuoc cham or as the main attraction of one of my favorite dishes ever, Bun Thit Nuong. And much like Bulgogi is for Korean cuisine, it's a great gateway dish to Vietnamese cuisine for the uninitiated. Meat generally cooks best and retains the most juice and flavor at room temp. Bring the meat up to room temp by taking it out of the refrigerator 30 to 45 minutes before cooking. Also, chargrilled or charbroiled cooking is best for this dish, as the char is part of its signature flavor, but you can also pan fry or saute/stir fry if that works best for you.

Ingredients :

• 1.5 Tablespoons oil
• 1 teaspoon lime zest or 1 Tablespoon very finely minced lemongrass (the latter is preferable, but not widely available)
• 1 large shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/3 cup)
• 1 large green onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 pounds pork shoulder, thinly sliced or cut into 1/2-inch thick steaks to be cut into smaller pieces after cooking
• 3 Tablespoons fish sauce
• 3 Tablespoons brown sugar

Instruction :

1. TO MARINATE: In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients together thoroughly and marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days, before cooking.

2. GRILL COOKING METHOD: If you're cutting the meat into small pieces, you'll need a grill basket to keep them from falling through the slats. Spread the pork in a single layer and cook over medium high heat (and at least 5 inches above the coals or gas element) until the meat is cooked through and the fatty bits are charred. 5 to 7 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the cut and grill heat.

3. SAUTE/STIR FRY COOKING METHOD: Cook in three equal batches in a medium high preheated and well oiled (about 2 teaspoons oil per batch) saute pan or fry pan or wok. If you want to ramp up the char factor with this method, you can turn the heat up a little bit higher and use about a teaspoon more oil for each batch. I won't lie - it's messy. But sometimes, you gotta put up with a little mess to make something really delicious.

4. BROILER COOKING METHOD: Preheat broiler. Spread in a single layer on a broiler pan and place about 4 inches under the broiler for 10 to 12 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and some of the fatty bits are charred.

5. Enjoy!
