directions
- In a large bowl, mix together the pork, shallots or scallions, garlic, peppers, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, lime juice, salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate for 15-30 minutes.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to boil. Add the carrots and blanch for about 30 seconds. Remove the carrots with a slotted spoon to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking.
- Place the spaghetti in boiling water for 10 minutes until cooked through. Drain, rinse in cold water and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a sauté pan or wok over medium-high flame. Remove the pork from its marinade and sauté quickly until just cooked through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add equal amounts of the carrots and lettuce to each 2 or 3 deep serving bowls. Place equal amounts spaghetti on top of the vegetables. Then place a spoonful of pork on top of the noodles to cover them about 1/3 of the way. Place the sliced cucumber neatly over another 1/3 of the noodles. Finally, lay sprigs of cilantro and mint over the remaining 1/3 of the noodles.
- Sprinkle peanuts over each dish and serve with melted butter to pour over the noodles to taste.
