Vietnamese Pork Salad with Rice Noodles

Make on Fresco
Serves 6 Prep Time 30 minutes   Cook Time 5 minutes   Rated:

Having just been to Vietnam and as we are taking a foodie group there in 2020, I planted some Vietnamese herbs when I got home. And I am so glad I did. They are plentifully available in Asian grocers, but to whip outside and pick them is pretty fun. I am in LOVE with Vietnamese mint. It is so different, not at all minty to be honest and it imparts a flavour unique to Vietnamese cuisine. So plant it or buy it, but don't do this recipe without it! I am finding that I love it in all salads...so watch out...you're going to see it on here again! (And possibly again!)
