Instructions
- Crush the spice mix (garlic, coriander seeds, and coriander root) with a granite mortar and pestle.
- Add palm sugar, golden mountain sauce, oyster sauce, and fresh milk, and stir everything into one sauce.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
- 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
