I can heat it up really hot without destroying the pan. It also retains heat well and heats evenly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Squeeze juice from 1\/3 of the\u00a0lime\u00a0on to the ground pork. Mix well and let it marinate for just a couple of minutes until you are ready to cook it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heat up a pan on high until it is very hot. Add two tablespoons of water and then immediately add your marinated pork and stir. The pork will stick to the pan at first, but then the juice will come out and the meat will loosen from the bottom. Keep stirring until the pork is well done. Traditionally, the pork is undercooked, but I do not recommend undercooking pork for health reasons.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put the pork in a bowl a large mixing bowl that will hold all the ingredients. Add\u00a0fish sauce,\u00a0green onion, shallot,\u00a0cilantro, the rest of the\u00a0lime\u00a0juice, ground\u00a0chili pepper\u00a0and almost all of\u00a0toasted rice\u00a0into the bowl. Save some\u00a0toasted rice\u00a0to sprinkle on top for garnish. Mix well and taste. It should be a little bit hot. You should be able to taste tartness from the\u00a0lime\u00a0juice and the\u00a0fish sauce. If you need to add more\u00a0fish sauce\u00a0or\u00a0lime\u00a0juice, don&#8217;t be afraid. Getting the flavor balance right is a trial and error process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put the mixed ingredients in a serving bowl, garnish with\u00a0spearmint\u00a0and sprinkle the rest of\u00a0toasted rice\u00a0on top. Serve with vegetables like\u00a0cabbage, green beans,\u00a0lettuce\u00a0and\u00a0Thai basil.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tips and Techniques<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4715,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4713","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-traditional"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/spicy-salad.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4713","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4713"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4713\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5302,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4713\/revisions\/5302"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4715"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
