Hello friends ! Today I'm share with you about Vietnamese Food, this so famous in my country is Com Tam ( Cơm Tấm )
Com is the Vietnamese word for rice. Rice is an important ingredient in Vietnam. Nearly every dish in Vietnamese cuisine involves rice in some way. One of the most common dishes involving rice is com tam. This is a dish made with broken rice grains instead of normal long grain rice. Broken rice is rice that has been damaged during harvest or production. In the past, broken rice was hard to sell, so farmers used to throw it away or use it as animal feed. Eventually, farmers and poor families started consuming it because it was cheaper than normal rice. There are a variety of dishes utilizing broken rice. There’s Com Ga (rice plate with chicken), Com Tom Cang Rim (rice plate with jumbo shrimp), and of course Com Suon Nuong (rice plate with grilled pork chops).

Lemongrass Pork Chops
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix the ingredients for the marinade (all the ingredients through brown sugar) in a small bowl. Add the pork chops and marinade to a ziploc bag. Marinate for 3 hours or overnight. I would highly recommend marinating it overnight for the best flavor.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Put a wire rack on a baking sheet. Place the marinated pork chops on top. Make sure to reserve the marinade. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip the pork chops over. Brush with the marinade and bake for another 15 minutes. The pork shop should be done when the internal temperature is 145 degrees F. The bake time will vary based on the thickness of the pork chop. Mine were thick (~1 inch thick), so I baked it for 30 minutes on each side. You can also pan fry or grill the pork chops, but I find the oven the easiest method.
While the pork chops are baking, cook the broken rice, fry your eggs, slice your cucumbers and tomatoes, and make your scallion oil. To make the scallion oil, heat vegetable oil over medium high heat for 1-2 minutes. Pour the oil over the green onions and set aside.
Serve pork chops with broken rice, cucumbers, tomatoes, pickled carrots & daikon, a fried egg, and Vietnamese dipping sauce.
