- 2 Tbsp. fish sauce
- 2 tsp. ground coriander
- 2 tsp. curry powder
- 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 3 lb. pork tenderloin
- Dressing:
- 2/3 cup white vinegar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 4 Serrano chilies, minced
- Peanut Sauce:
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 2 shallots, minced
- 1 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 3 tsp. red curry paste
- 2 tsp. fish sauce
- 1 16 oz. can unsweetened coconut milk

- Salt to taste
- Cucumber Salad:
- 4 English cucumbers, peeled, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup cilantro, finely chopped
- 4 Tbsp. basil, finely chopped
- 2/3 cup peanuts, chopped
- Marinade:
- Mix all marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add the pork tenderloins and let stand for 10 minutes, turning once.
- Dressing:
- In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, brown sugar and salt. Simmer over medium heat, stirring, just until sugar dissolves. Add the 4 minced Serrano chilies. Pour dressing into medium bowl and let cool.
- Pork:
- Preheat grill. Remove pork tenderloins from marinade and grill until browned on all sides and firm to the touch, about 15-20 minutes. Transfer to cutting board, cover loosely with foil and cool for 15 minutes.
- Peanut Sauce:
- Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add the shallot and cook over medium heat until soft, about 2 minutes. Stir in peanut butter, red curry paste, fish sauce, and coconut milk. Simmer on low heat until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add lime juice and season with salt.
- Cucumber Salad:
- Add cucumbers to the reserved dressing and toss. Stir in cilantro and basil. Mound the cucumber salad in the center of a large serving platter. Thinly slice the pork and arrange around the salad. Sprinkle with peanuts, and serve the peanut sauce on the side.
