Instructions

  1. Crush the spice mix (garlic, coriander seeds, and coriander root) with a granite mortar and pestle.
  2. Add palm sugar, golden mountain sauce, oyster sauce, and fresh milk, and stir everything into one sauce.
  3. Transfer the marinade sauce to a large mixing bowl, add pork, and thoroughly coat it with the marinade. Let it rest for at least 4 hours in the fridge or overnight for the best flavor.
  4. Grill your Thai marinated pork over charcoal until thoroughly and evenly cooked through, with a charred crust and tender meat. The grilling time depends on the thickness of your meat and the heat of the charcoal. Occasionally flip to prevent burning.
  5. Let the grilled meat rest for a few minutes to redistribute the juices, and then slice it thinly. Serve immediately with rice and the optional dipping sauce.

Kor moo yang sauce

  1. Put fish sauce, fresh lime juice, white sugar, dried chili flakes, and toasted rice powder into a bowl. Stir them gently with a spoon until everything is mixed well. Add some coriander or freshly chopped green onions for garnish. Let it sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors blend together.

Notes

  • Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
  • Pork – Pork neck (kor moo) is the traditional choice for this moo yang recipe. Good pork neck substitutes are pork shoulders, butt, collar, or loin – though be careful not to overcook the loin. Pork chops and ribeye also make fantastic options for grilling.
  • Toasted rice powder
