I am pretty sure I lifted this recipe off from somewhere else on the web...its has been sitting in a file on my PC for quite some time. I tried searching for it but could not find it to give proper credit. Anyway, pork with lemon grass is one of my faves...here it is. Also, instead for frying sometimes I grill it at high heat...
Spicy Pork Chop with Lemon Grass
2/3 lb. pork chop (thinly sliced)
1/2 Tbsp. deep-fried shallot
1 stalk scallion (thinly chopped)
Marinade:
1/2 Tbsp. light soy sauce
1 tsp. dark soy sauce
1/3 tsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. Huy Fong Foods Sambal Oelek
1/2 stalk lemon grass (minced)
2 tsp. beer (optional)
1/2 Tbsp. cornstarch
2 tsp. garlic (minced)
Marinate pork chops for half an hour.
Heat 1/2 Tbsp. oil and add chopped scallions.
Saute for a bit and then remove from heat.
Skin, wash, dry, and slice shallot. Mix with a little salt. Drain off excess water on towel. Deep fry shallots in warm oil over low heat until golden and crisp. (Watch shallots closely because they burn easily.)
Deep fry pork chops in hot oil until completely cooked. Remove and drain.
Place on dish and sprinkle with shallot and pour on scallion oil.
*Serve suggestion: Serve with a slice of lemon and cucumber
