Stuffed Basil with Grilled Pork Skewers
- 10 sticks Bamboo Skewers
- 5 teaspoons Fish Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Chili Flake (optional)
- 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 pounds Ground Pork
- 50 leaves Organic Fresh Basil
- 3 Tablespoons Chopped Roasted Peanuts For Garnish
- Soak bamboo sticks in water for at least an hour.
- Mix all the seasonings and pork.
- Set aside for 15 minutes in the fridge.
- Lay out basil leafs on a prepared area.
- Form a pork mixture into an oval ball and place on each leaf.
- The size of the ball depends on how big a basil leaf is.
- When you have enough, start to thread them on a skewer.
- I put 5 of them on each skewer.
- (You can refer to the related blog post photos for instructions.)
- Preheat a grill to 375 F. Grill for about 8 minutes.
- Turn halfway through.
- Sprinkle with chopped roasted peanuts.
- Its surprisingly good without a dipping sauce!
