Asian Pork Salad topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1 lime
- 1 tbsp. l. peanut butter
- 1 package (280 g) of mixed coleslaw vegetables (such as kale, kohlrabi, and cabbage)
- 2 cucumbers, thinly sliced
- 1 shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp grated peeled ginger
- 450 g of minced pork
- 1 tbsp garlic chili sauce
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 cup fresh cilantro or mint
- 1/4 cup chopped roasted salted peanuts
Preparation:
- Grate the zest of the lime and set aside, then squeeze the juice of half a lime into a large bowl and cut the other half into small wedges. Mix 1 teaspoon of peanut butter with a pinch of salt and the lime juice. Add the cabbage and cucumbers and toss to coat with the dressing.
- In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 teaspoons peanut oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the ginger and cook, stirring, until softened but not browned, about 1 minute. Add the ground pork and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, breaking up the pork with a wooden spoon, until browned in spots and browned throughout, 6 to 8 minutes. Carefully drain all but about 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet. Stir in the chili sauce, fish sauce, and lime zest and remove from the heat.
- Divide the coleslaw among bowls. Top with the pork, sprinkle with herbs and peanuts, and serve with lime wedges.
