Prepare the ingredients
First, we peel the garlic and mince it together with the chili to make the sauce.
Cut the sausage into round slices about the thickness of one finger, each slice should be cut into 4 pieces.
Tip: We can cut the sausage according to our preference; however, it should not be cut too small to avoid burning and soaking too much sauce, which makes the sausage salty.

Make the sauce
First, add 3 tablespoons of fish sauce into a bowl, followed by 2 tablespoons of chili sauce, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate. Then use a spoon to stir the mixture until combined.

How to Choose Good Pork Sausage
- It is advisable to buy sausage from reputable quality places. For pre-packaged pork sausage, you should pay attention to check the packaging and expiration date of the product.
- If the sausage shows signs of mold, sliminess, black spots, sour or strange smell, or if the banana leaves wrapping it are moldy or slimy, then it should be discarded immediately and not used!
In addition, there are ways to recognize good pork sausage by sight through: aroma, color, and surface of the pork sausage.
- It is best to choose pork sausage that is not overly fragrant; good pork sausage should have a faint aroma of the sausage accompanied by the scent of the wrapping leaves. If there is no scent of the wrapping leaves, the pork sausage will lose its characteristic deliciousness. If the pork sausage has a strong smell, it may have been flavored with additives.
- The ideal color of good pork sausage is a creamy white leaning towards light pink.
- Observe the surface of the pork sausage; if the sausage is good, it will have small holes, and looking at the meat, it should feel smooth and slightly moist. Sausage without holes may have been mixed with flour.
- If you have time, you can make pork sausage at home to ensure safety and quality.
