Ingredients:

  • 1 pound pork shoulder or pork loin, thinly sliced
  • 1 package (8 ounces) rice vermicelli noodles
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh herbs (such as cilantro, mint, Thai basil), chopped
  • Lettuce leaves or mixed greens
  • Lime wedges

For the marinade:

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons lemongrass, finely chopped (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the pork: In a bowl, combine the pork slices with all the marinade ingredients. Mix well to ensure the pork is coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight.
  2. Prepare the noodles: Cook the rice vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  3. Grill the pork: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated pork slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
  4. Prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and shallots, sauté until fragrant and lightly golden. Add fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and black pepper. Stir well and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  5. Assemble the noodle bowl: In individual serving bowls, place a handful of lettuce leaves or mixed greens. Top with a portion of cooked rice vermicelli noodles. Arrange slices of grilled pork on top of the noodles.
  6. Garnish and serve: Drizzle the prepared sauce over the pork and noodles. Garnish with chopped peanuts (if using) and fresh herbs. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
