Lemongrass Barbecued Pork With Rice Vermicelli Salad Recipes

BUN THIT NUONG (GRILLED PORK AND VERMICELLI SALAD)

Steps:

• Mix all thit nuong ingredients together. Refrigerate and marinate for at least half an hour.
• While meat is marinading, mix nuoc mam ingredients together, stirring until sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside.
• Boil vermicelli according to package directions, draining once cooked through.
• Remove pork from the fridge and cook using desired method. Grilling over an open flame is best, but I usually cook it on the stove over medium-high heat, then broil it in the oven for a few minutes.
• In individual serving bowls, place vermicelli, vegetables, and herbs. Top with pork and chopped peanuts. Drizzle nuoc cham and hoisin sauce on top, as desired. Dig in and enjoy!
• Notes: Chicken, shrimp, or even tofu make wonderful substitutions for pork in this recipe.
• Use as many or as few of the suggested vegetables and herbs as desired (or even make your own additions!).

BúN THịT NướNG RECIPE (VIETNAMESE GRILLED PORK & RICE NOODLES)

Steps:

• Slice the uncooked pork thinly, about 1/8". It helps to slightly freeze it beforehand.
• Mince garlic and shallots. Mix in a bowl with sugar, fish sauce, thick soy sauce, pepper, and oil until sugar dissolves.
• Marinate the meat for 1 hour, or overnight for better results.
• Bake the pork at 375 F for 10-15 minutes or until about 80% cooked. Finish cooking by broiling in the oven until a nice golden brown color develops, flipping the pieces midway. Don't take your eyes off the broiler!
• Assemble your bowl with veggies, noodles, and garnish. Many like to mix the whole bowl up and pour the fish sauce on top, but I like to make individual bites and sauce it slowly.

VIETNAMESE LEMONGRASS BBQ PORK (THịT NướNG) AS MADE BY OMSOM RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Thinly slice the pork into ¼-inch(6 mm) thick slices, then transfer to a medium bowl. (If the pork is difficult to slice, place in the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up).
• Add the Omsom Vietnamese Lemongrass BBQ Starter and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate up to overnight.
• While the pork marinates, make the dipping fish sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the warm water and sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the fish sauce and stir to combine. Squeeze in the lime juice, then use a fork to scrape the lime pulp into the bowl (do not scrape the bitter pith). Add the garlic and chile. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork to the pan in a single layer and cook without disturbing until caramelized and beginning to cook through, 4-5 minutes. Toss and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the pork is fully cooked on all sides. Remove the pork from the pan and serve as desired.
• To assemble the vermicelli bowls, divide the rice noodles between 2 bowls and top with the cucumber, bean sprouts, lettuce, and pork. Garnish with cilantro, crushed peanuts, and dipping fish sauce.
• Enjoy!

VIETNAMESE GRILLED PORK AND RICE VERMICELLI NOODLE BOWL

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Combine all the sauce ingredients and stir to dissolve the sugar completely. Set aside.
• For the pork: Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a blender; puree about 20 seconds until smooth. Place the pork in a medium bowl, pour the marinade over the meat and massage the pork well. Marinate for at least 1 hour if time allows. Heat a grill pan, medium skillet or griddle to high and add the oil. When you see white wisps of smoke, saute the pork for about 5 minutes until cooked through.
• For the noodles: Soak the rice sticks in warm water for 20 minutes. Drain, then boil the soaked rice sticks in 3 quarts (2.8 liters) of water in a 4-quart (3.8-liter) pot for about 12 minutes until al dente. Rinse them well under cold water in a fine mesh strainer and reserve.
• Assembly: Divide the noodles into 4 separate bowls. Place the pork on top of the noodles. Sprinkle the pork with radish, carrot, roasted peanuts and scallions. Pour Nuoc Cham Sauce over the noodles and mix them well like a salad.

LEMONGRASS PORK WITH VIETNAMESE TABLE SALAD

Steps:

• For dipping sauce:
• Mix all ingredients in small bowl. Season sauce to taste with salt. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
• For pork:
• Mix first 6 ingredients and 2 tablespoons oil in 11x7-inch glass dish. Add pork chops to marinade, turn several times to coat evenly, then crowd together in single layer. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• For salad and noodles:
• Arrange cucumber, pineapple, bean sprouts, all herbs, and carrot around edge of large platter. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Cook noodles in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender and turning white, separating often with tongs, about 4 minutes. Drain. Arrange in center of platter. Mound lettuce leaves in large shallow bowl.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush grill rack with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Grill pork with marinade still clinging to meat until slightly charred and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Transfer pork to cutting board. Let rest 10 minutes.
• Cut pork crosswise into 1/3-inch-wide strips. Place pork and any juices from board atop noodles. To serve, fill lettuce leaves with pork, noodles, herbs, and vegetables. Serve with sauce for dipping.
