How to Make Vietnamese Lemongrass Porkabobs Thit Lui
- In a large bowl, whisk together the lemongrass paste, fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, black pepper, and sesame oil.
- Add the ground pork to the marinade and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling to bring it to room temperature.
- Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Thread the marinated pork onto the soaked skewers.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the pork is cooked through and slightly charred. Baste with extra marinade during grilling for added flavor.
- Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced chilies (optional).
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
