Vietnamese pork chops with cucumber tomato salad

Whenever I have $10 in my pocket and want to make something aromatic and satisfying, I make Vietnamese pork chops. Vietnamese food is one of my favorites; I love the mix of salty, acidic and sweet that’s commonly found in their cuisine. Pickling and marinating are methods often used in Vietnamese cooking and is what makes every dish so flavorful. Think of the simple bun dish; rice noodles served with grilled pork chops, Vietnamese spring rolls and their famous nuoc cham dipping sauce (fish sauce, lime and vinegar with pickled daikon and carrots). It’s such a simple concept and yet, this dish hits the spot every time I order it. Today I am showing you how to make Vietnamese pork chops using fish sauce and lime juice. It’s absolutely delicious! I use this pork recipe for banh mi sandwiches too!
This Vietnamese pork chop recipe is served with a bowl of steam rice and a simple tomato and cucumber salad.
