Thai Pork Noodle Salad
Preparation – 15 minutes Cooking Time – 15 minutes Serves – 2 People
Thai Pork Noodle Salad allows you to experiment with the type and texture of the pork. In some areas of Thailand people prefer to use sliced Vietnamese pork sausage whereas others like the texture of pork mince with the salad. We use both as it makes the dish more interesting. This Thai Food Recipe is Easier if Cooked in a Medium Sized Pot
