Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound thin boneless pork chops, fat trimmed
8 ounces wide Thai rice noodles
1 cup fresh cilantro (leaves and stems)
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime
2 slices peeled ginger
2 cloves garlic, smashed
3 red jalapeno peppers, seeded and roughly chopped
2 shallots, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
4 tablespoons peanut oil
1/4 pound green beans, split lengthwise and cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Place the pork in the freezer about 10 minutes to make it easier to slice. Soak the noodles in very hot water until just tender, about 10 minutes; drain. Snip the noodles with scissors into shorter lengths. Cut the frozen pork crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
  • Puree the cilantro, lime zest and juice, ginger, garlic, jalapenos, shallots, fish sauce, brown sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a food processor until smooth, scraping down the processor as needed.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add half the cilantro mixture and stir-fry 1 minute. Add the pork and stir-fry until no longer pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the pork with a slotted spoon to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the skillet; add the green beans and stir-fry until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the noodles, pork and 2 tablespoons of the remaining cilantro mixture. Cook, tossing with tongs, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining cilantro mixture to taste.

Time 35m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 25

200 grams Pork Scotch Fillet (also known as pork neck, pork shoulder, or collar butt steaks) - thinly sliced
1 TSP Corn Starch
1 TSP Light Soy Sauce
1 TSP + 1 TBLS Canola or Vegetable oil, divided
1.5 TBLS Fish Sauce
1.5 TBLS Light Soy Sauce
½ TBLS Sweet Dark Soy Sauce
2 TBLS Tamarind Paste (also known as tamarind concentrate or puree)
1 TBLS freshly squeezed Lime Juice
½ disc (25 grams) Coconut Sugar - shaved with a knife (substitute with 1 TBLS light brown sugar or more to taste if unavailable)
1 TSP Crushed Red Pepper Chili Flakes, to taste
150 grams / 5.3 ounces Thin Dried Flat Rice Noodles (sen lek, about 2-3mm wide) - soaked in water for 20-30 minutes or until softened
2 TBLS Canola or Vegetable Oil
3 Asian Red Shallots - finely chopped (substitute with 1/4 of medium red onion if unavailable)
5 Garlic cloves - minced
4-12 Red Chilies (Bird's Eye preferred, but Holland or other small red chilies will work too), to taste - chopped
1 TBLS Preserved/Pickled Radish (omit if unavailable)
1 (50-60 grams) square pressed firm Yellow Tofu - diced
1 Egg
1 TBLS Water
3 Chinese Chives (also known as garlic chives) - chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 Spring Onion (Scallion/Green Onion) - chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 cup Mung Bean Sprouts - rinsed and drained
1 TBLS chopped (unsalted or lightly salted) oil roasted Peanuts
To Serve (optional): More bean sprouts, chopped spring onion, chopped Chinese chives, chopped oil roasted peanuts, lime wedges for squeezing, and crushed red pepper chili flakes.

Steps:

  • Clean and trim off excess fat from the pork, then thinly slice and add to medium sized bowl. Add the corn starch, light soy sauce, and 1 TSP canola oil to the bowl, then mix with a spoon until the pork is evenly coated in the marinade. Set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.
  • Soak the rice noodles in a bowl filled with room temperature water for 20-30 minutes, or until they have softened and are pliable. Drain and set aside. Chop/prepare the shallots, garlic, red chilies, Chinese chives, spring onion, and yellow tofu as indicated in the 'Ingredients' section. Rinse and drain the mung bean sprouts, set aside.
  • Combine the fish sauce, light soy sauce, sweet dark soy sauce, tamarind paste, lime juice, coconut sugar, and crushed red pepper chili flakes in a measuring cup (for easier pouring) or small bowl. Mix with a spoon or small whisk until thoroughly combined, then set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil (or vegetable oil if using) over high heat in a large wok or large deep sauté pan. Once hot, add the pork and spread out the pieces in an even layer in the wok. Cook for 1 minute, undisturbed, then turn over the pieces to sear the other side for another minute. Stir-fry for 30 seconds or until the pork has almost fully cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a clean bowl and set aside.
  • Heat 1.5 tablespoons canola oil in the wok over high heat. Once hot, add the shallots, garlic, and red chilies. Stir-fry for a minute until fragrant.
  • Add the pickled radish and tofu and toss to combine.
  • Push everything to the side of the wok and add the remaining half tablespoon of oil. Add the egg and scramble. Then stir-fry to combine with everything else.
  • Add the rice noodles, 1 tablespoon of water, and pour the Pad Thai Sauce on top of the noodles. Toss through to combine with the aromatics. (Note: It may look a bit too liquidy at first, but the noodles will quickly start to cook in the liquid and absorb the sauce.)
  • Add the pork and toss to combine. Then add the mung bean sprouts, Chinese chives, and spring onion. Stir-fry for 40 seconds to 1 minute, then switch off the heat. (Note: The residual heat from pan will help wilt and soften the veggies once taken off the heat.)
  • Divide the Spicy Pork Pad Thai evenly into plates and garnish with chopped peanuts. Serve with more bean sprouts, spring onion, Chinese chives, chopped peanuts, lime wedges for squeezing, and crushed red pepper chili flakes if desired.

TANGY PORK NOODLE SALAD WITH LIME AND LOTS OF HERBS



Tangy Pork Noodle Salad With Lime and Lots of Herbs image

This light, bright salad, full of lettuce, leafy herbs and silky rice noodles, is seasoned with just enough ground pork to add richness without weighing it down. The fish sauce and citrus juices make it intense and tangy, while the honey softens its gingery bite. This salad is best served when freshly made and still very crisp, but won't suffer much from sitting out for an hour or two.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fish sauce, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon honey
Fine sea salt
4 tablespoons grapeseed or safflower oil
1/2 cup thinly sliced shallot (1 large)
6 ounces pad Thai or other flat rice noodles
2 garlic cloves, finely grated or mashed to a paste
1 (2-inch) piece ginger, peeled and grated (about 2 teaspoons)
1 Thai or serrano chile, thinly sliced and seeded if you like
1 pound ground pork (or turkey)
1 cup thinly sliced cucumbers
2 scallions, white and green parts, sliced
1 1/4 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup mung or other bean sprouts (or 1 cup lettuce)
1 packed cup mint leaves
1 packed cup cilantro or basil sprigs, or a combination
2 cups shredded romaine or other crisp lettuce
Red-pepper flakes, for serving
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together lime zest and juice, orange juice, 2 tablespoons fish sauce, honey and a small pinch of salt. Pour half of the mixture into a large bowl and whisk in 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil and the shallots. Set both mixtures aside.
  • Cook noodles in salted water and according to package directions. Rinse under running water to remove any excess starch, then drain well and add to bowl with shallots, tossing well. Set aside while preparing remaining ingredients.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, ginger and chile, and cook until lightly golden and aromatic, about 1 minute. Add pork and stir, breaking up pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook without stirring too often, until browned, about 8 minutes. Pour in lime juice mixture from the small bowl. Simmer gently until most of the liquid is evaporated, stirring to coat pork in the glaze, another 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  • Add pork, cucumbers, scallions, cherry tomatoes, bean sprouts and herbs to the noodles and toss well to combine. Taste and add more fish sauce, lime juice or both. Just before serving, toss in lettuce, and serve sprinkled with red-pepper flakes with lime wedges on the side.

SPICY GINGER PORK NOODLES WITH BOK CHOY



Spicy Ginger Pork Noodles With Bok Choy image

Spicy, brawny and full of ginger and garlic, these pork noodles are a play on dumplings, but easier to make at home. If you don't have the black vinegar to sprinkle on top of the sliced ginger, you can simply leave it out. Or try substituting balsamic, which is a bit sweeter, but has similar caramel notes to play off the ginger's pungency.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounces baby bok choy (3 or 4 small heads)
1 ounce ginger root (1 fat 2-inch-thick knob)
Kosher salt
8 ounces rice noodles, not too thin
2 tablespoons peanut or safflower oil
1 pound lean ground pork
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 fresh Thai or habanero chile, seeded if desired, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil, more for drizzling
Cilantro or torn basil, for serving
Black vinegar, for serving

Steps:

  • Trim bok choy and separate dark green tops from white stems; leave tops whole and thinly slice stems. Peel ginger and finely chop half of it. Slice remaining ginger into thin matchsticks.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add noodles and cook according to package instructions. Drain and run under cool water; drain again.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook, breaking up with a fork, until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1/2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar. Use a slotted spoon to transfer meat to a bowl.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Stir in half the scallions, the finely chopped ginger, the garlic and the chile. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add bok choy stems and a pinch of salt. Cook until bok choy is almost tender, about 2 minutes. Toss in leaves and return pork to skillet.
  • Toss noodles, remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce and 1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar into the pan. Cook until just warmed through.
  • Transfer to a large bowl and toss with remaining scallions, sesame seeds, sesame oil and herbs. In a small bowl, combine ginger matchsticks with just enough black vinegar to cover. Serve ginger mixture alongside noodles as a garnish.
