This Vietnamese caramelised pork recipe is super quick and easy, so it is perfect for preparing in a hurry if you have a lot of guests over the Christmas period.

Ingredients

  • 400g organic pork mince from Helen Browning’s
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 2 garlic cloves (chopped)
  • 2 teaspoons of chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 fresh chilli (chopped)
  • 200g of brown sugar
  • 100ml of fish sauce
  • Cooking oil for frying
  • Rice, spring onions, and side salad to serve

Method:

  1. Add the chopped garlic, ginger, chillies, and onions to a frying pan (make sure the oil is hot!) and cook until the onions are sheer.
  2. Next, add the pork mince to the pan and continue to fry until the pork mince is brown.
  3. Add the brown sugar and fish sauce to the pan and continue to stir (to avoid sticking to the pan!) until the pork mince has caramelised in the sugar mixture.
  4. Serve the pork over a bed of basmati rice and top with spring onions, and pair with a salad for extra veg.
