This Thai pork mince is bursting with flavour. It is quick and easy, ideal for a weeknight or lazy dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch spring onion
- 1 brown onion (diced)
- 3 garlic cloves (crushed)
- 750 grams pork mince
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 350 mL coconut milk
- 100 grams peanuts (chopped)
- 3 tbsp red curry paste
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 bunch soba noodles
Instructions
- In a large pan or pot with olive oil at medium heat, add the pork mince. Break the mince up and cook it until it browns. Use a spoon to drain and remove any fat that renders out of the pork mince.
- Add the crushed garlic to the mince, cook until they start turning fragrant.
- Pour the chopped peanuts and brown sugar into the pot. Mix until the brown sugar has dissolved.
- To the mince add the red curry, oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and sesame oil. Then pour in the coconut milk. Give the mince a stir until everything is combined.
- Add the spring onions. Put a lid on the pot, turn the temperature down to low. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Whilst the Thai pork mince is simmering, bring a separate pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the soba noodles and cook per package instructions - typically 4-5 minutes.
- Drain the noodles, place them in a bowl and top with the pork mince.
