Ingredients and preparation
Nam phrik ong is made from ground pork, and may contain sugar, tomato, and shrimp paste. The chili paste typically includes dried chili, salt, garlic, lemongrass, water and shrimp paste, all of which is pounded in a mortar. The cooked ground pork is mixed with the chili paste in the mortar, with some water added if too dry, and it is typically served with an assortment of fresh seasonal vegetables.

gollark: Technically my laptop has a camera. But also technically that's not a webcam.
gollark: Or I can just never go on camera and remain eerily silent in voice.
