Step by Step Method
Step 1
To make the meatballs, combine the pork mince, spring onions, fish sauce, coriander leaves, chilli sauce, garlic, sugar salt, pepper and flour and combine well and then, using wet hands, shape into meatballs of 3cm (1 inch) diameter.
Step 2
Heat the vegetable oil in a frypan to hot and fry off the balls, rolling them around in the pan so they are well browned on all sides.
Step 3
To assemble the dish, place on the baguette slice a layer of lettuce, carrot and mayonnaise, then add a layer of the meatballs and finish with more coriander sprigs.
