Pork Ribs Cooked Five Hours in Oven.
I can’t have a favourite dish, in South-East Asia.
Not even a Top 10.
There are just too many.
This pork is served with a sauce of subtle but complex salt & spice flavors, a salad of lettuce, cucumber, tomato, onion and capsicum with a light-ish, creamy mustard dressing, and sticky rice – to which I like to mix in a squirt of chilli sauce and a good dose of South-East Asian hot pepper.
If I were at home in St Kilda, I would discreetly wrap the bones and tendons in a serviette and take them for my two little terrier dogs – to better explain why I’ve arrived home with such a happy, contented smile.
At the newly opened The Local Anh’s restaurant & bar, cnr Hùng Vuong and Trâng Quang Khai streets, central Nha Trang, Vietnam.
VND135,000 (AUD9), or add VND10,000 for mozzarella cheese on the pork, which our Russian tourist friends seem to savour.
