Minced Pork and Shrimp in Coconut Milk

• 1 cup coconut milk, homemade (page 584) or canned
• 2 fresh red chiles, preferably Thai, stemmed, seeded, and minced
• 1 tablespoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1/2 pound ground pork
• 1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon nam pla
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 2 scallions, trimmed and chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves

1. Put the coconut milk, chiles, ginger, and garlic in a medium saucepan.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil.
3. Stir in the pork and adjust the heat so the mixture simmers steadily.
4. A minute later, add the shrimp.
5. Cook, stirring, until both pork and shrimp are cooked through, about 3 minutes more.
6. Stir in the nam pla, then salt and pepper if necessary.
7. Remove from the heat and transfer to a serving bowl; garnish with the scallions, cilantro, and mint, and serve.
