Bangkok's favourite street breakfast: pork skewers marinated in a sweet-salty coconut milk marinade, caramelised over the coals, served with a bag of sticky rice. Eaten on the go, by hand.
Pound the garlic, coriander stems and white pepper into a paste in a mortar.
In a bowl, mix the paste with the oyster sauce, fish sauce, soy sauce, palm sugar, half the coconut milk and the oil until the sugar dissolves.
Add the pork slices, massage thoroughly to coat, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
Thread the slices onto the skewers in a wavy, tight pattern.
Grill over charcoal, in a griddle pan or under the oven grill on medium heat, turning often, for 10-12 minutes, brushing several times with the remaining coconut milk, until the meat is cooked through and the edges caramelise.
Serve hot with sticky rice.

Tips
Shoulder is fattier, so it stays juicy; loin dries out.
You can freeze the marinated, skewered meat, so in the morning you just need to grill it.
