Steps:

• Whisk the fish sauce, syrup, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the shallots, chile and garlic. Transfer 2 tablespoons liquid to a large shallow dish and add the pork. Turn to evenly coat and let stand until ready to cook.
• Stir the lime juice into the sauce in the bowl. Add the carrots and toss until evenly coated. Let stand.
• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until seared and just rosy in the center, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let stand.
• Put the noodles in the boiling water, stir well, and remove from the heat. Let stand until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain very well, then transfer to the sauce in the bowl. Toss until evenly coated.
• Cut the pork into thin slices and add to the noodles with any accumulated juices. Toss well. Toss in the herbs until well mixed. The mixture may look a bit soupy. As it sits and cools, the noodles will absorb the liquid. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature or cold, with more herbs and lime wedges.

LONG RICE NOODLE SOUP PORK OR CHICKEN

Steps:

• Before you start cooking, take the dried shitake mushrooms and long rice noodles and place both in a bowl of warm water. Let these soak for about 15-20 minutes until they are soft.
• While these are soaking, brown ground pork, minced garlic, and garlic salt in a large pot on medium heat. Do not drain.
• Once pork is cooked, add the cans of chicken broth to the pot. Start with four cans and if you prefer your soup thinner add a few more. Keep in mind that the long rice will soak up some of the soup. Bring this to a boil before adding other ingredients.
• Take softened long rice noodles out of the warm water and add to the pork/chicken broth. Also take the softened shitake mushrooms and cut off the stems and slice into 1/4" strips and add to broth. Cover pot and cook on medium heat for another 30 minutes. Stir soup periodically during this time.
• Now add the water chestnuts and bamboo shoots into broth and cook another 10 minutes uncovered.
• Take the eggs and crack these directly into the broth and mix the broth quickly with a spoon. This will scramble the eggs into the soup.
• This is now the time to taste your broth and add salt and pepper to taste. Just keep in mind that the flavors get more intense the next day.
