Vietnamese Grilled Pork (bun-thit-nuong)

Instructions

1. 1

   Slice the uncooked pork thinly, about ⅛". It helps to slightly freeze it (optional).

2. 2

   Mince garlic and shallots. Mix in a bowl with sugar, fish sauce, thick soy sauce, pepper, and oil until sugar dissolves.

3. 3

   Marinate the meat for 1 hour, or overnight for better results.

4. 4

   Bake the pork at 375F 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.

5. 5

   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.
