Vietnamese Grilled Pork (bun-thit-nuong)
Ingredients
- Pork - 1.5 pounds sliced
- Rice Vermicelli - 1 package thin
- Egg Rolls - 4-6
- Challots - 3 tablespoons minced
- Garlic - 1.5 tablespoons minced garlic
- Sugar - ¼ cup
- Fish Sauce - 1 tablespoon
- Soy sauce - ½ tablespoon thick
- Pepper - ½ tablespoon
- Olive Oil - 3 tablespoons
- Cucumber - Sliced
- Mint - Leaves
- Peanuts - Crushed
Instructions
- Slice the uncooked pork thinly, about ⅛". It helps to slightly freeze it (optional).
- Mince garlic and shallots. Mix in a bowl with sugar, fish sauce, thick soy sauce, pepper, and oil until sugar dissolves.
- Marinate the meat for 1 hour, or overnight for better results.
- Bake the pork at 375F for 10-15 minutes or until about 80% cooked. Finish cooking by broiling in the oven until a nice golden brown color develops, flipping the pieces midway.
- Assemble your bowl with veggies, noodles, and garnish. Many like to mix the whole bowl up and pour the fish sauce on top, but I like to make individual bites and sauce it slowly.
