Ingredients
- 5 cloves garlic
- 2 coriander root
- 2 1/4 cups or 1.2 lb pork thinly sliced, see notes
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 2 1/2 tbsp palm sugar
- 1 tsp white pepper
- 1 tbsp tapioca starch
Instructions
- Pound garlic and coriander root with a mortar and pestle.
- In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, palm sugar, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, tapioca starch, and white pepper. Stir well. Add the thinly sliced pork and ensure each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Before skewering the pork, soak the bamboo skewers in water for 20 minutes. Thread the marinated pork slices onto the pre-soaked skewers.
- Lightly brush your grill with oil to prevent the meat from sticking. Place the skewers on the grill, cooking each side for 2–3 minutes, or until the pork is thoroughly cooked and has a nice char. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes
- Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
- Pork: Opt for pork shoulder or pork butt for the best moo ping. Boston butt or picnic shoulders have the ideal fat content to keep the meat juicy during grilling.
