Ingredients

• 500 g Ground pork
• 3 tbsp Dark soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 2 tsp Fish sauce
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 medium Shallots, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp Cooking oil
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 2 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the cooking oil.

Step 2

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and chopped shallots. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.

Step 3

Add the ground pork to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon or spatula, until it's browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the dark soy sauce, sugar, fish sauce, rice vinegar, and water. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Pour the sauce mixture over the browned pork and stir to coat the meat evenly.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and let the pork cook in the sauce for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces and the mixture becomes slightly sticky.

Step 7

Add the crushed red pepper flakes and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the dish with the chopped green onions and fresh cilantro (if using).

Step 9

Serve warm as an appetizer or over steamed rice for a more filling meal.
