Pork

Pork Marinade
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped lemongrass
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Sandwich

Here's how to make it:
- Combine all the marinade ingredients in a plastic zipper bag. Add the pork. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- To make the pickled vegetables, combine the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add the daikon and carrots. Allow them to sit for about 15 minutes to pickle.
- When ready to eat, heat a frying pan or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned and cooked through. Do this in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan.
