I don’t think I can think of an even more classic Vietnamese dish than Com Tam a.k.a broken rice platters. It’s usually jam packed with so many delicious components that you can never pick just one. Today, I’m bringing you a classic Com Suon Nuong but with an easy twist using the airfryer. (Don’t worry, you can always pan fry or traditionally grill these too!)

Com Suon Nuong translates to Grilled Porkchop Rice Platter but since I don’t always have the time or energy to try to ignite my grill, we throwing her in the airfryer. If you don’t understand my love for airfryers by now, then we can’t be friends. Working a full-time job M-F and even Sundays, your girl doesn’t have much time to cook, let alone watch a grill. In comes my airfryer to the rescue, so I can do more important things – like scroll on IG. lol.

Anyways without further ado, here’s my super easy & simple Com Suon Nuong recipe!

At 19, I decided to spread my wings & move to Seattle, which would begin my food journey with cooking on my own.

Fast forward to present day, I'm now based in Orange County (some would say, foodie capital of the world!) and currently, I'm sharing daily recipes & food knowledge with my 80k+ following of fellow foodies!
