I cooked this Spicy Pork Larb for dinner tonight, a perfect dish as it was delicious and quick and super healthy. The only thing you have to cook is the pork, which takes just a few minutes. Once that is done, mix in with all the chopped and sliced greens, herbs, sauces, and serve with plenty of crisp salad!
