Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 stalks lemongrass tender white parts only, minced
- 1 shallot minced
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound pork shoulder thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil for grilling
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced lemongrass, minced shallot, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- Add the thinly sliced pork to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Grill the marinated pork slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until charred and cooked through.
- Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving with your choice of sides, such as rice, noodles, or a salad.
