Thai Pork With Savoy Cabbage Recipes

THAI PORK WITH SAVOY CABBAGE

Steps:

• PLACE meat in shallow dish; brush with 1/4 cup of the dressing. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight to marinate, turning meat halfway through the marinating time. Remove meat from marinade; discard marinade.
• PREHEAT grill to medium heat. Grill meat 30 minute or until cooked through (160ºF), turning after 15 minute Cool slightly. Cut into thin strips; set aside.
• MIX remaining 1/2 cup dressing and the soy sauce in microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 20 sec. Toss with the cabbage and onions in large bowl. Transfer to large serving platter; top with meat. Sprinkle with sesame seed and cilantro.

GINGERY CABBAGE ROLLS WITH PORK AND RICE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with salt.
• Prepare the cabbage: Remove about 12 large outer leaves, reserving the rest of the cabbage for another use. Once the water boils, lower the heat to medium so that the water reaches a gentle boil. Add the cabbage leaves, about 4 at a time, and cook until tender and flexible but leaves remain intact and maintain their crunch, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a towel-lined plate and set aside to cool slightly while you make the filling. Repeat with remaining cabbage leaves.
• Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine pork, rice, egg, scallions, ginger and soy sauce with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper.
• Assemble the cabbage rolls: Working with one cooked cabbage leaf at a time, place it on a cutting board or other flat surface with its stem end at the bottom. Spoon a heaping 1/4 cup of the pork mixture in the center and mold the mixture into a rough 2- to 3-inch log. Pull the stem end over the meat mixture, and fold the right and left sides of the leaf over and roll tightly to the very top. Place the cabbage rolls seam-side down in a large Dutch oven or ovenproof, straight-sided saucepan. Repeat with the remaining cabbage and pork filling.
• Pour the chicken broth over the cabbage rolls and bring to a boil over medium. Cover the pan, transfer to the oven, and bake until cabbage rolls are fork tender and the meat mixture is cooked through, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve with ladles of broth over the rolls and a drizzle of sesame oil.

THAI MARINATED PORK WITH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Pork& Marinade:Combine everything (but the pork) untill it's all blended together well.
• Add the pork and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
• I like to let it sit in the fridge overnight.
• Some people like to use dishes or bowls to marinade the meat, but I like to use large zipper seal bags.
• While the meat is soaking we can get going on the dipping sauce: Mix everything together and taste.
• If it's too spicy-hot, just add a little more sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice till the flavor is right.
• When it's time to cook the meat, start your grill (I prefer charcoal).
• Skewer the meat if thats what you are doing, and place the items on the grill.
• Cook both sides evenly for a couple of minutes and make sure it's cooked all the way through.
• When eating, dip the meat into the sauce and enjoy.

THAI PORK SALAD

Steps:

• Season pork with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high 5 minutes. Add half of cabbage, cut-side down; cook, flipping once, until charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, then pork; cook, flipping once, until a thermometer inserted into thickest parts registers 140 degrees, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate; let cool slightly, then thinly slice.
• In a large bowl, whisk together onion, lime juice, fish sauce, chile, sugar, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Chop raw and charred cabbage into bite-size pieces; add to bowl along with cucumber and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among plates. Top with pork, mint, and peanuts; serve.
