Vietnamese Lemongrass Porkabobs Thit Lui Recipes

Steps:

• Thinly slice the pork into ¼-inch(6 mm) thick slices, then transfer to a medium bowl. (If the pork is difficult to slice, place in the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up).
• Add the Omsom Vietnamese Lemongrass BBQ Starter and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate up to overnight.
• While the pork marinates, make the dipping fish sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the warm water and sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the fish sauce and stir to combine. Squeeze in the lime juice, then use a fork to scrape the lime pulp into the bowl (do not scrape the bitter pith). Add the garlic and chile. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork to the pan in a single layer and cook without disturbing until caramelized and beginning to cook through, 4-5 minutes. Toss and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the pork is fully cooked on all sides. Remove the pork from the pan and serve as desired.
• To assemble the vermicelli bowls, divide the rice noodles between 2 bowls and top with the cucumber, bean sprouts, lettuce, and pork. Garnish with cilantro, crushed peanuts, and dipping fish sauce.
• Enjoy!
