If you want tasty it really depends on the food you want.

Do you cook with fresh herbs verse dry? Or both?

Do you cook with fresh herbs verse dry? Or both?

I usually cook with fresh herbs because I like the smell of freshness. Usually the really only close dry herbs I would use is the nplooj txiv lws zoov because those are good to make sweet pork.

I like fresh herbs too but I used dry as well. Dry are mainly for chicken, like rubs and such. Fresh would be for stews

Haha, I will show you when I have the time to cook that. It's really not a good dish to make everyday cause it's way to fattening and sweet. I don't know but today I crave some sticky rice, cherry tomato peppers and rotisserie laab.

Kam kawg los mam, yuav ua cas kuv hom tsis kam nas?

The ingredients you will need is:

1 Boneless Pork sirloin (it doesn't have to be sirloin, it can be anything to your likings) * I bought mine at Sam's Club for $15, which is pretty cheap. At Wal-mart you only get 1/4 the sizes of Sam's Club pork sirloin.
About 15 Cherry Tomatoes (Cut into halves) *You can have as many as you want.
1 Red onion (sliced) *Don't over power the dish with red onion because you will only taste the onion which is not good.
2-3 stalks of spring onions or green onions (minced or shredded like the Hmong OGs do it when they make laab)
1 bunch of cilantro (finely chopped)
Morton Salt (use what you like)
McCormick Pure Ground Black Pepper (use what you like)
CJ Korean BBQ Kalbi Marinade (I used this to make the pork have a little sweetness to it from the Asian pear) *But this is totally optional.
Half of a lime squeezed (optional)


Best served from sticky rice!

Step 1:
Wash the pork sirloin well very and pat it dry with a paper towel.
Cut the pork into slices. Make sure you don't cut them too small because at the end you will cut it into smaller pieces.

Step 2:
In a large bowel, mix your pork with a pinch of salt, and some black pepper. You may exclude the salt and black pepper if you are using the Korean BBQ sauce because it has salt and a lot of other good ingredients in there already. If you don't mind it like me, go a head and added in the Korean BBQ sauce with the salt and black pepper you added. Mix them very well and set them aside.

Step 3:
In another bowel, mix your cilantro, spring onions(green onions), cherry tomatoes and red onions and set them aside.

Step 4:
Depending on your preference, cook the marinated pork to a tenderness. Please remember to cook it fully but not burnt the meat. I like grill my as many of you may know. It gives it that charcoalness flavor. If you don't want to grill it you may cook it in the oven at 375 flipping each side so that it isn't burnt. You can also pan sear it, just make sure it is fully cooked.

Step 5:
Once you have the meat fully cooked, slice the meat into fine strips and set them into a large bowl.

Step 6:
Add the cilantro, green onion, cherry tomatoes, red onions into the large bowl of pork and mix well.

Step 7:
Optional, squeeze half of a lime into the well mixed pork.

Step 8:
Serve with sticky rice or rice of your choice.

Step 9:
Don't forget the water.
