Instructions
1
Prep
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, minced lemongrass, minced garlic, fish sauce, sugar, cornstarch and black pepper; mix until sticky.
2
Marinate
Cover and chill for 20 minutes so lemongrass and fish sauce penetrate the meat.
3
Grill
Divide mixture into 2–3 small patties, flatten to 1cm thick, brush pan with oil, and cook over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side until deeply charred and centre is no longer pink.
4
Assembly
Dip rice paper in warm water until pliable, layer with shredded lettuce, vermicelli, mint, cilantro, pickled carrot, sliced chili, minced garlic, thinly sliced scallion and a grilled pork patty; roll tightly.
5
Plate
Slice wrap in half, arrange on a plate alongside tamari-lime dipping sauce.
