Vietnamese Dinner Recipes

4 lb pork loin 1 c pearl onions 3 Tbsp. soy sauce 2 tsp. green curry paste 3 tsp. oyster sauce 1 tsp chili powder 1 red bell pepper, cut in strips Sauce 3 tsp brown sugar 1/2 c. water 1 13.5 oz. can coconut milk (shake well before opening!) 2 tsp. House of Tsang® Saigon Sizzle™ Sauce

Place pearl onions in roasting pan, place pork on top of onions. The onions act as a flavorful roasting rack. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, curry paste, and oyster sauce. Pour over pork. Dust with chili powder. Scatter red pepper on top. Roast 20-30 minutes per pound at 350° F, or until internal temperature measures 170° F. Remove from oven and allow to stand 5-10 minutes before carving. While pork is resting, combine ingredients for sauce in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until flavors meld. Serve alongside pork. Serve this dish with rice or rice noodles.
