Pork with Spicy Lime Sauce : Mhoo Ma Now : หมูมะนาว

Simple and easy to spice up your boring day!

     I made this as a traditional taste but serve like fusion ^___^ All ingredients are easy to find except fish sauce for somebody, haha anyway I wish you’ll try this someday.

     In traditional way we serve pork on cabbage and top with sauce, Chinese kale stem as a side. Eat as an starter or appetizer. I’m not drink but I don’t know why people like to eat this with beer or maybe this is a great dish for it LOL

     You can use other meat which you like, shrimp beef squid are scallop are so great with this sauce. Depend on what kind of meat on sale that time can save your money as much. ^____^
