Description

Grilled pork marinated in Thai spices and soy sauce. Serve over rice with a sweet chili dipping sauce.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tbsp coriander roots
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp white pepper
  • 1/2 cup (70 g) palm sugar
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp star anise
  • 2 lbs (1 kg) pork loin rack

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients (except pork) and mix well.
  2. Lay the pork in a single layer in a shallow dish, or in a plastic bag, and pour over the marinade, massaging it well into the meat.
  3. Refrigerate overnight.
  4. Heat a bbq grill over high flame.
  5. Char-grill the cutlets until just cooked, or until clear juices come out when tested with the tip of a knife.
  6. Take off the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  7. Serve with rice and sweet chili sauce.

Notes

  • For a richer marinade, use brown sugar instead of palm sugar.
  • If you don’t have a grill, you can pan-fry the pork over medium-high heat.
  • Leftover pork can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated in a pan or microwave.
