Lemongrass Pork Patties With Vietnamese Dipping Sauce
In Vietnam, little pork patties like this are often grilled over charcoal right on the street and diners sit and eat on (now iconic) little plastic stools. You can serve these patties simply wrapped in the lettuce leaves here, as a snack, or over vermicelli noodles, as a larger meal. WhatÂ’s non-negotiable? Serve with plenty of herbs and the funky, salty, sour, sweet dipping sauce.
