Pour oil into a saucepan and place over high heat. Add pork and saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, breaking up lumps. Add sugar, 1 1/2 tb fish sauce, the lime juice and chiles. Cook 1 minute. Set aside in a bowl. Put garlic, shallots, pepper and more oil if needed into the saucepan; fry over medium heat until fragrant. Add tomato and cook until reduced to a slightly lumpy sauce, about 5 minutes. Add pork, tomato paste, remaining fish sauce and chicken stock; simmer 10 minutes. Garnish with coriander. Serve over hot steamed rice. Source: San Francisco Chronicle Typed by Katherine Smith Kook-Net: The Shadow Zone IV - Stinson Beach, CA
