Moo Yang Recipe (Thai Grilled Pork)

Ingredients

• 3 cloves garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds
• 2 coriander root
• 1/2 tablespoons palm sugar
• 1 tablespoon golden mountain sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 1.5 lb pork (see notes)
• 1/2 lime
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1/2 tablespoon chili flakes
• 1/2 tablespoon toasted rice powder (see notes)

Steps

1. 1

   Crush the spice mix (garlic, coriander seeds, and coriander root) with a granite mortar and pestle.

2. 2

   Add palm sugar, golden mountain sauce, oyster sauce, and fresh milk, and stir everything into one sauce.

3. 3

   Transfer the marinade sauce to a large mixing bowl, add pork, and thoroughly coat it with the marinade. Let it rest for at least 4 hours in the fridge or overnight for the best flavor.

4. 4

   Grill your Thai marinated pork over charcoal until thoroughly and evenly cooked through, with a charred crust and tender meat. The grilling time depends on the thickness of your meat and the heat of the charcoal. Occasionally flip to prevent burning.

5. 5

   Let the grilled meat rest for a few minutes to redistribute the juices, and then slice it thinly. Serve immediately with rice and the optional dipping sauce.

6. 6

   Put fish sauce, fresh lime juice, white sugar, dried chili flakes, and toasted rice powder into a bowl. Stir them gently with a spoon until everything is mixed well. Add some coriander or freshly chopped green onions for garnish. Let it sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors blend together.
