Phá lấu (Chinese: 拍滷; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: phah-ló̍) is a Vietnamese dish from Ho Chi Minh City,[1] made from pork meat and offal that is braised in a spiced stock of five-spice powder (with curry powder sometimes added).[2] Small wooden sticks are used to pick up the meat, which is then dipped in pepper, lime/kumquat and chili fish sauce and served with rice, noodle or bánh mì. In Cambodia, the dish is called pak lov (Khmer: ផាក់ឡូវ).
