Add a little water to a pot and heat over medium. Add the ground pork and fish sauce. When the water boils, stir and break up the pork so it cooks evenly.

Once the pork is cooked, add the glass noodles. Stir until the noodles are heated through and soft.

Add roughly chopped green onion and cilantro. Stir to combine.

When the vegetables start to soften, add the dried shrimp (using dried shrimp gives better flavor than regular dried shrimp). Stir until the shrimp absorb some liquid, then turn off the heat. Taste and adjust the flavor with sweetener, fish sauce, and lime juice until you like the balance—aim for a tangy, slightly salty, and lightly sweet taste. (I don’t add chili yet because my partner doesn’t eat spicy food.)

Once you’re happy with the flavor, serve on a plate. I separate some out to add chili—use chili flakes or fresh chili as you like. This dish is delicious and very low in carbs, perfect for anyone eating healthy or low-carb.
