directions
To make the marinade, use a mortar and pestle to pound the coriander root, garlic(1) and peppercorn to paste.
Place the pork in a mixing bowl. Scoop the paste over the pork and add crispy flour, sugar, light soy sauce and oyster sauce then use your hands to mix all the ingredients together. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and place in the fridge at least 15 minutes to marinate.
Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan over medium- heat. Add the pounded garlic(2) and cook until it starts to turn color (the garlic will continue cooking as it sits, so be sure to remove it from the heat before the garlic is golden brown). Use a sieve to drain the garlic and transfer to the paper towel to drain.
Using the same pan with garlic oil over medium heat. Take the bowl of marinated pork from the fridge and stir for a second. Once the oil is hot carefully place the marinated pork into the pan and cook until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel and sprinkle generously with the fried garlic.
Serve with spicy tamarind dipping sauce and sticky rice.
