How to make thai food: Fried sun dried Pork

Ingredients

500g pork, its best not to use a great cut of meat here but one that is a little tough and if possible with pork has some marbling.

3 coriander roots

1 tbls ground black pepper

1 tbls sugar

1 tbls sesame seeds

3 cloves garlic crushed

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

Optional

1 or 2 or 3 or more chillies crushed

Method

Thinly sliced the pork (against the grain) into thin slices as if you were going to stir fry

Mix all the dry ingrediants (minus the sesame seeds) in your mortar and pestle and ground to a rough paste. Don't worry it will be quite dry.


Add the wet ingredients and sesame seeds and mix together. Then add the pork and make sure it is well coated.

Place on cooling racks and leave in a sunny place for at least 3 hours but up to 6 or 7. The Meat will be much drier and will be starting to firm up.

At this stage you can keep in the fridge for 1 week without cooking

And to cook simply deep fry in a medium hot oil until golden brown.

Drain on a paper towel for a minute or two and serve with beer and si racha (chilli) sauce
