Sauce
3 Tbsp Brown Sugar
5 Tbsp Soy Sauce
2 tsp fish sauce
2 tsp sambal oelek
2 Tbsp water
Whisk together in a small bowl and set aside
Veggies
1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced (or do as I did, the equivalent of seeded and sliced small sweet peppers)
1/2 red onion, sliced
3 large garlic cloves, minced
Put in a bowl and set aside
Thai Basil – enough stems to yield two large handfuls once you destem them. Rinse and remove from the stems, set aside
1 lb ground pork
In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the pork, breaking up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Once the meat is relatively well distributed, add the peppers, onions, and garlic, and continue to cook until the pork is cooked all the way through, around 7-10 minutes.
Add the basil leaves, then pour in the sauce. Stir and let simmer 2-3 minutes.
Serve over rice.
