International Women's Day March 8th is approaching, preparing a cozy dinner yourself to express affection and care for women in the family. Accordingly, guys can refer to the delicious and unique Thai-style grilled pork nong (Kor Moo Yang) for this particularly meaningful occasion.
The dish is a harmonious blend of crispy, crunchy pork tenderloin and Thai-style tamarind sauce. This dish also does not require too elaborate processing procedures but brings a new experience, very suitable for enjoying on International Women's Day 8. 3.
To make Thai-style grilled pork gizzard, prepare 500g of fresh pork gizzard (choose pork cheeks with interspersed fat textures), 3 corianders, 2 shallots and 3 cloves of garlic.
The marinating and dipping sauces include 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 2 tablespoons of jaggery sugar (or brown sugar), 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 2 tablespoons of tamarind juice, 1 tablespoon of roasted rice powder and 1 teaspoon of chili powder.
After preliminary processing the pork trotters with diluted salt water, use a paper towel to pat them dry so that when grilled, the meat is crispy and quickly absorbs the spices.
Puree coriander, garlic and shallots and mix with soy sauce, oyster sauce and 1 tablespoon of jaggery sugar to make meat marinade.
Marinate the pork leg with the spice mixture for 2-4 hours in the refrigerator. Marinating for enough time will help the spices penetrate deep into each piece of meat, creating a characteristic aroma. The dipping sauce is made from fish sauce, tamarind juice, the remaining palm sugar, chili powder and roasted rice powder to create smoothness.
Heat the oven or oil-free fryer to 180 - 200 degrees C. Put the pork belly in to bake on each side for about 10 - 15 minutes. Note not to bake for too long to avoid making the meat dry and losing the natural juicy of the belly fat.
Next, when the meat is golden brown on both sides and fragrant, take it out to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing the meat. Then, cut the pork leg into thin slices that fit the mouth diagonally of the meat fibers. Letting the meat rest helps prevent the meat juice inside from flowing out, maintaining the softness and sweetness of the dish.
Arrange the pork trotter on a plate with tamarind and rice fermented sauce, adding a little sticky rice. The combination of delicious grilled meat with crispy edges, fatty and the sour, spicy, salty and sweet taste of the dipping sauce will create an interesting Thai culinary experience for the family on the occasion of March 8th.
