Summer rolls with caramelized pork

Sticky sweet caramelized pork topped with lettuce, carrot, spring onion and cucumber all wrapped in rice paper with noodles. Does this sound like paradise? Imagine a creamy peanut sauce on top of that!

Ingredients

For the sauce:

• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• juice of 1 lime
• 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 crushed clove of garlic
• 2 tablespoons of peanut oil
• chopped peanuts (for garnish)
• salt and pepper to taste

For the caramelized pork:

• 1 pork tenderloin (about 500 g)
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 spoons of fish sauce
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 crushed garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon of sesame oil

For summer rolls:

• 1 pack of rice paper
• 2 large carrots cut into thin sticks
• 1/2 cucumber cut into thin sticks
• 4 chopped spring onions (green parts)
• 1/2 leaf lettuce
• 120 g vermicelli noodles

Method

1. Start by adding the sauce ingredients (except the chopped peanuts) to a food processor and blend until smooth.
2. Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped peanuts and refrigerate until you need the sauce.
3. Cut the pork into pieces and remove all the fat / gristle.
4. Add the sugar in an even layer to the bottom of a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat.
5. It may take a few minutes for anything to happen, but if nothing happens for about 10 minutes, turn up the heat a bit.
6. Watch your sugar carefully.
7. Once it spreads and turns a nice caramel color, add the pork and stir until coated.
8. Add fish sauce, salt and pepper and mix.
9. Cover the pan and cook for about two minutes.
10. Add garlic and sesame oil and mix.
11. Cook, uncovered, for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced a bit and the pork has caramelized in a delicious sticky sweet sauce.
12. When done, transfer to a bowl or plate.
13. While the pork is caramelizing, it’s a good idea to start chopping the vegetables and cooking the noodles to take advantage of the time.
14. Peel the carrot and cut it into thin sticks.
15. Do not peel the cucumber and also cut it into thin sticks.
16. Chop the green parts of the spring onions.
17. Tear the salad into pieces.
18. Set the vegetables aside on a plate to prepare.
19. The noodles only take a few minutes to cook.
20. Add them to the boiling water and follow the directions on the package.
21. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool faster.
22. Once you’ve completed the above steps, it’s finally time to make the summer rolls.
23. Fill a large bowl with cold water.
24. Moisten a piece of rice paper and then place it on the surface on which you will make the rolls.
25. Add the vermicelli, vegetables and pork to the top third of the rice paper.
26. Fold the sides over slightly, then fold the top over so that it just touches the filling.
27. Push the filling towards you with your hand.
28. Keep in mind that you want the rolls to be fairly tight, but if you roll them too tightly, the paper will tear.
29. Repeat the process for as many rolls as you have filling.
30. Serve rolls with peanut sauce.
