Ingredients:

Serving

1 stalk fresh lemongrass , root end trimmed and 1 or 2 outer layers discarded
3 (2- to 3-inch) dried hot thai chiles , including seeds
3 tbsp minced shallot
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp shrimp powder or 1 1/2 tbsp dried peeled shrimp ( see cooks' note, below)
1 tsp minced cilantro root or stem
1 tsp minced kaffir lime zest or regular lime zest
1 tsp minced peeled galangal (fresh or thawed frozen )
1 tsp kosher salt
5 black peppercorns
1 tsp thai shrimp paste
1/2 lb long beans
3/4 lb boneless pork shoulder
3 tbsp peanut or vegetable oil
1 tbsp asian fish sauce
1 tbsp packed grated palm sugar
3 medium kaffir lime leaves (fresh or thawed frozen ; 2 sections each), ribs discarded and leaves minced

Directions:

Make paste: Mince 1 tablespoon lemongrass from root end. Put minced lemongrass and remaining paste ingredients in mortar and vigorously pound to a smooth paste using pestle (most chile seeds should be crushed), 6 to 8 minutes.
Cook beans and pork: Cook beans in a medium saucepan of boiling salted water (1 teaspoon salt for 2 quarts water), uncovered, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Drain again.
Pat pork dry, then cut across the grain into ÿ-inch-thick slices (about 2 by 1 inch).
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over high heat until it shimmers, then cook seasoning paste, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add pork, tossing to coat, then spread out in skillet and brown, turning occasionally (to keep paste from burning), about 2 minutes. Add fish sauce, palm sugar, and beans and cook, tossing, until pork is just cooked through and beans are hot, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and toss with lime leaves.
Cooks' notes: &149; If using dried shrimp, grind to a powder in an electric coffee/spice grinder or use mortar and pestle. &149; Seasoning paste can be made ahead and chilled, covered, up to 1 week or frozen 1 month.
