Ingredients
500 grams ground pork (minced pork)
2 cloves garlic - minced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
3 tablespoons lemongrass - white parts, minced- 6 bundles rice noodles
- 1 packet rice paper - 50 sheets
2 tablespoons mixed herbs (usually Thyme, Marjoram, Oregano, Parsley, Sage, Basil) - Vietnamese- 1 head lettuce
Instructions
- Cut the green part of the lemongrass stalk into 10- to 15-centimetre sticks and set them aside to use later.
- Mix the meat ingredients and let it sit for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator covered in plastic wrap.
- An hour before cooking the meat, start on your side dishes. Fill a medium-size pot of water and bring to boil. Add the rice noodles and cook for 5 minutes. Check to see if it is cooked through.
- Drain the rice noodles and run under cold water to remove excess starch and stop the noodles from cooking. Leave noodles in the colander until ready to serve.
- Wash the herbs and lettuce.
- When the meat is ready, wrap the meat around the stalk and brush with oil ready for the barbeque.
- Grill the sticks for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side on low heat. Before taking it off the barbeque, check to make sure it is cooked through. You shouldn’t see any pink.
- Prepare the table with fresh herbs, noodles and a big bowl of hot water for the rice paper.
