Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and minced ginger to the skillet. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add ground pork to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Incorporate the brown sugar and fish sauce, then mix to combine.
- Increase the heat to high. Spread the pork mixture evenly in the skillet and let it cook without stirring for 2-3 minutes to caramelize. Stir and repeat this process once or twice more to achieve desired caramelization.
- Add the finely minced red chili pepper (optional) and sauté for another minute.
- Remove from heat. Stir in the chopped green onions.
- Serve the caramelized pork immediately, over cooked rice or in lettuce leaves.
