Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, mirin, water, and corn flour. Mix well until the corn flour is fully dissolved.
- Add the ground pork to the bowl and mix to coat the pork evenly. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to marinate.
- Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Generally, this involves soaking them in hot water until they are soft.
- Once softened, drain the noodles and set them aside.
- Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated pork to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and fry until crispy and browned. This should take about 6-8 minutes. Remove the pork from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and ginger. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the peanut butter, chicken gravy, and sugar to the skillet. Stir well to combine all the ingredients into a smooth sauce.
- Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
- Add the cooked pork back into the skillet with the sauce. Stir to coat the pork evenly with the sauce.
- Add the drained rice noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce and mixed with the pork.
- Transfer the crispy pork and noodles to serving plates.
- Optionally, you can garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro, chopped peanuts, or a squeeze of lime for added flavor.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious crispy pork with noodles!
Tips:
- Make sure to heat the peanut oil until it's really hot before adding the pork to ensure it becomes crispy.
- Soak the rice noodles in hot water prior to cooking to ensure they are soft and tender.
- Use fresh ginger and garlic for the best flavor impact.
- Adjust the sauce consistency by adding more water if it seems too thick.
- Garnish with sliced green onions or fresh cilantro for an extra burst of freshness.
