Rinse the pork chops in diluted salt water, then rinse several times under running water. Drain well in a colander. Use a meat mallet to gently pound the pork to tenderize. Marinate the pork chops with all the ingredients listed above for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor. Grate the garlic and shallot. Wash and drain the vegetables for serving. For the dipping sauce, mix fish sauce, sugar, and water in a 1:2:2 ratio. Combine in a saucepan and bring to a boil, then let cool. When ready to serve, add fresh lemon juice and minced garlic and chili to the sauce. The garlic and chili will float and look beautiful.
