Creator Notes
This pork recipe is traditionally a favored Vietnamese dish known as pork with betel leaf. In this recipe, I substituted betel leaves for collard inexperienced leaves resulting from betel leaves would possibly perhaps be laborious to search out in most supermarkets.
For the pork, guarantee that to spend pork chuck. Novel lemon grass is moreover ideal for more flavors and texture. Adding bacon pudgy will preserve the pork moist when frying. —Amy
