  • Vietnamese Lemongrass Pork Vermicelli Bowl

    This is bún thịt nướng territory: thin rice vermicelli, chargrilled lemongrass pork, a tangle of fresh herbs and pickled veg, and a bright fish sauce dressing pooled at the bottom. Every bowl is a little different depending on what you pile on, which is half the fun. The pork marinates while you prep everything else, so the whole thing comes together faster than you'd expect. No cow dairy, no soy, no sesame oil, just clean, punchy Southeast Asian flavour.

  • German-Style Pork Chops with Harissa, Roasted Cauliflower and Pomegranate

    This is a German-leaning spin on a bold, weeknight-friendly pork chop dinner. The chops get a proper German-style marinade: whole-grain mustard, caraway, garlic, harissa paste, and a good splash of dark beer. The harissa brings its own heat and smokiness, layering in chili, cumin, and often caraway all at once. That combination gives you something sharp and earthy, with a deep savory crust from the cast iron. The cauliflower still roasts hot and gets properly caramelized, seasoned with caraway and coriander and a spoonful of harissa so it fits the mood. The pomegranate seeds and parsley at the end still do their job, cutting through the richness with brightness and a little sweetness. It's a satisfying plate that feels grounded and hearty without being heavy.

  • Crispy Pork Cutlets With Tangy Tonkatsu Sauce

    Tender pork loin pounded thin, breaded in panko, and fried until the crust shatters at first bite. The tonkatsu sauce is sweet, tangy, and slightly fruity, with a depth that comes from Worcestershire and ketchup reduced together. Serve this over shredded cabbage with steamed rice and you've got the kind of meal that makes you stop talking mid-bite. The cutlets stay crisp even as the sauce pools underneath, and the cabbage adds a cool, clean crunch that cuts through the richness.

  • Swedish Meatballs with Lingonberry and Creamy Oat Sauce

    These are proper Swedish meatballs, made without cow dairy but with all the comfort you'd expect. Oat milk and margarine come together into a sauce that coats the back of a spoon beautifully, and a spoonful of lingonberry jam stirred through at the end gives the whole thing that sweet-tart edge that makes Swedish meatballs so good. The meatballs themselves are pork and chicken, seasoned with allspice and nutmeg the traditional way. Serve over mashed potato or egg-free pasta, with a little extra lingonberry on the side.

  • Marinated Pork Bulgogi Rice Bowl

    Bulgogi is one of those dishes where the marinade does most of the heavy lifting. Thin slices of pork soak up a sweet-savory bath of coconut aminos, garlic, ginger, and gochugaru, then hit a hot cast-iron pan until the edges caramelize and the whole kitchen smells incredible. Piled over steamed rice with crisp cucumber, pickled carrots, a fried egg, and a drizzle of gochujang, this bowl covers every note: sweet, salty, a little heat, a little crunch. It photographs beautifully too, all those colors layered in a bowl. The marinade time is where the magic happens, so plan around that, but the actual cook is fast.

  • Vietnamese Pho with Pork Broth

    A soul-warming, deeply fragrant bowl of Vietnamese pho built on a rich, spiced pork broth. Star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and charred ginger bring that unmistakable pho perfume, while tender slices of pork loin and soft rice noodles make it a full, satisfying meal. Topped with fresh herbs, crunchy bean sprouts, lime, and all the classic pho fixings — minus the beef, sesame, and soy.
