How to Make Lemongrass Pork Vietnamese Noodle Salad
- Marinate the Pork: In a large bowl, mix the pork with soy sauce, fish sauce, honey, dark brown sugar, chopped lemongrass, minced garlic, and sliced green onions. Cover and let it marinate overnight for the best flavor.
- Cook the Pork: If you're using an Instant Pot, set it to cook at 390°F for 8 minutes. Alternatively, pan-fry the marinated pork in a skillet over medium-high heat until fully cooked and golden.
- Make Pickled Veggies: Shred the carrots and cucumbers, sprinkle with salt, let sit briefly, then squeeze out moisture. Soak in vinegar-sugar solution for about 30 minutes.
- Prepare Green Onion Oil: Heat canola oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add chopped green onions and fry until wilted. Remove from heat and cool.
- Assemble Salad: Start with a bed of chopped lettuce, layer cooked noodles, marinated pork, pickled veggies, and drizzle with green onion oil. Garnish with cilantro.
