Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Soak bamboo skewers in water for 10 minutes while you prep. Cut pork into 1-inch cubes.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic in a bowl. Toss pork cubes with marinade.

  3. Step 3

    Thread pork onto skewers, packing pieces snugly. Reserve leftover marinade.

  4. Step 4

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes. Oil lightly.

    Cook skewers 6–8 minutes, turning every 90 seconds, until charred and cooked through. Brush with reserved marinade in the last minute.

    Serve immediately with sticky rice and cucumber slices.
