Steps

1
Done

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, coriander root, garlic, white pepper, sesame oil, and coconut milk.

Stir well until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

2
Done

Marinate the Pork

Add the sliced pork to the marinade and mix well, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours or overnight for the best flavor.

Marinating Tips:

Use Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh garlic, coriander roots (or ground coriander), and coconut milk for the best flavor.

Marinate for Longer: While 2-3 hours is the minimum, marinating overnight in the fridge will allow the flavors to penetrate the pork more deeply, resulting in a more flavorful dish.

Massage the Pork: After adding the marinade, gently massage the mixture into the pork slices for even distribution of flavors.

Don't Overmarinate: While long marination is key, marinating for too long (over 24 hours) can make the pork too soft, so avoid leaving it for too long.

Use a Ziplock Bag: If possible, place the marinated pork in a resealable ziplock bag. This ensures that the marinade evenly coats the meat and prevents air exposure, which helps the pork absorb the flavors.

Refrigerate the Marinade: Always refrigerate the pork while it’s marinating. Never leave it at room temperature for extended periods to prevent bacterial growth.

Add Some Fat: Adding small chunks of fat to the skewers will keep the pork juicy while grilling and add extra flavor.

These tips will ensure your Moo Ping comes out tender, juicy, and packed with rich flavors!

Skewer the Pork

Done

Grill the Moo Ping

Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.

Grill the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the pork is cooked through and has a beautiful golden-brown color.

While grilling, brush the skewers with some of the remaining marinade to keep them moist and add extra flavor.

Done

Serve

Serve Moo Ping hot with sticky rice (khao niew) and a side of fresh vegetables like cucumber and cilantro.

You can also serve it with a dipping sauce made from chili, garlic, fish sauce, and lime juice for an extra kick.

Enjoy your homemade Moo Ping! It's perfect for BBQs or as a delicious Thai street food-style dish.
