- Before starting, to a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Remove outer layer of lemongrass, then halve lengthwise. Place on a cutting board, cut-side down. Using the back of a spoon or a pot, forcefully hit lemongrass to crush.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, stir in rice and add lemongrass, then reduce heat to low.
- Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Separate bok choy leaves from stems.
- Place in a strainer and rinse under cool water. Pat dry with paper towels, then cut stems into 1-inch pieces.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork. Break up pork into smaller pieces. Add bok choy stems.
- Cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until no pink remains in pork.**
- Add brown sugar and ginger-garlic puree. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until mixture is fragrant and turns dark brown.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
- Finely chop chili, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping chilies.)
- To the pan with pork, stir in vegetarian oyster sauce, bok choy leaves, 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) chilies. (Like things spicy? Add more chilies!). Cook, stirring often, until bok choy leaves wilt.
- Remove from heat, then season with salt and pepper.
- Remove and discard lemongrass from rice. Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the green onions and half the crispy shallots.
- Divide rice between bowls.
- Top with caramelized pork and bok choy mixture.
- Sprinkle with remaining green onions and remaining crispy shallots.
- Drizzle with sriracha and sprinkle any remaining chilies over top, if you like.
