Lemon Grass Pork
"Just got down from the table after preparing and eating this. I found this on another website. This is a wonderful Thia dish. I also made some lemon tea (made by steeping the lemon grass with the tea bag) and it complimented the dish wonderfully."

We just made this and really liked the dish. We reduced the oil but otherwise made as directed. Thanks for posting. This was the first time I've bought lemon grass and it has a very nice taste. I followed prep directions in another recipe: CUT OFF THE WOODY TOPS AND BOTTOMS OF THE LEMON GRASS. REMOVE THE OUTER SECOND OR THIRD LAYERS OF THE STALK AND USE THE TENDER MIDDLE SECTIONS.

I'm 41y/o wife and mother of 2. I've been a nurse for 20 years. We live in a small town in Arkansas. My passion is cooking. I love to cook anything and everything. Luckily my family is adventerous in their eating habits, so I have lots of fun trying new things out on them. I also like camping, traveling, gardening,water sports and collecting recipes. I like getting to know other people from other parts of the world. We have 5 pets, 2 dogs and 3 ferrets. My worst pet peeve is when people stick their nose up at a dish before trying it, because they know a certain ingredient is in it. I know everyone has different tastes, but picky eaters just don't know what they are missing when they turn down a dish they havent even tried.
