Orgasmic Thai Larb Pork


I discovered a great, very friendly Thai grocery store called Bangkok Centery Grocery in Chinatown. I was craving Thai food and wanted to try making a meal from scratch at home. My friend Heather always brings in her larb gai from her neighborhood Thai restaurant and am always jealous, so I wanted to try making that at home. I bought some fresh ingredients like Thai basil, keffir lime leaves, and lemongrass, essential in Thai cooking. I also bought some green curry and red curry for later use.
The larb pork turned out really tasty, tangy, and comforting. I could eat this every day! I wish I could have shared it at work with Heather. Unfortunately Heather was on vacation but I'll tell her when she gets back, Im sure she'll be sooooooo jealous.
