Instrucciones

Trim any large chunks of fat or gristle off of the pork. If you're using skin-on pork belly like me, trim the skin off as well. Then, slice the pork into stripe about ¼ of an inch thick.

Add fry sauce ingredients to mortar and pestle with a little fish sauce. Pound. Add remainder of liquid ingredients. Add the meat to a bowl and pour sauce over it. Mix the meat thoroughly and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes but preferably overnight.

Skewer the pork by poking one end of a pork strip through the skewer, folding the pork over, and poking it through the skewer again. Keep a few inches on either end of the skewer empty.

If you're not using skewers, you can layer the pork on a wire wrack and cook them in the oven at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through. Broil for 1-2 minutes as necessary to achieve a char on the meat.

Grill the skewers, flipping often to ensure a good char on all sides. Skewers can also be baked using the instructions above.

Serve the cooked pork rolled in lettuce wraps with sticky rice, with rice noodles, or in a rice bowl
