Moo Yang Nam Prik

Moo Yang Nam Prik is a flavorful Thai BBQ dish featuring marinated pork grilled to perfection, served with a spicy dipping sauce. This high-protein meal is perfect for a satisfying and nutritious dinner.

Ingredients

• Pork shoulder - 400 grams
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Coriander roots - 2, chopped
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Fish sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Brown sugar - 1 tablespoon
• Black pepper - 1 teaspoon
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
• Chili flakes - 1 teaspoon
• Vegetable oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh cilantro - for garnish

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped coriander roots, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, black pepper, and lime juice to create a marinade.
2. Cut the pork shoulder into thin strips and add it to the marinade, ensuring the meat is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for more flavor).
3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the pork from the marinade and shake off excess marinade. Grill the pork strips for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and slightly charred.
5. While the pork is grilling, mix chili flakes with a bit of lime juice and a pinch of salt to create a dipping sauce.
6. Once the pork is cooked, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
7. Serve the grilled pork with the spicy dipping sauce and garnish with fresh cilantro.
