Noodles

Grilled Pork

Fish Sauce Dressing

Method

Preparation of Noodles

  1. 1

    Cook the Vermicelli

    Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the vermicelli noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 3-5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

Grilling the Pork

  1. 2

    Marinate the Pork

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and black pepper. Add the pork tenderloin to the marinade, ensuring it's well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 3

    Grill the Pork

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Allow the pork to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly.

Preparing Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the pork is grilling, shred the lettuce, julienne the cucumber, and rinse the bean sprouts and mint leaves. Set aside.

Making the Fish Sauce Dressing

  1. 5

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, water, minced garlic, and minced chili until the sugar is dissolved. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembling the Bowl

  1. 6

    Assemble the Vermicelli Bowl

    In a serving bowl, add a portion of the cooked vermicelli noodles. Top with sliced grilled pork, shredded lettuce, julienned cucumber, bean sprouts, and fresh mint leaves. Drizzle with the fish sauce dressing before serving.
