Hot and sour beef salad
I went to an Cambodian restaurant sometime ago, I had beef salad and I had to try making it.
I checked on the internet for Cambodian and Thai beef salad recipes, I mixed some of the recipes to create my own!
Ingredients
3-4 lettuce leaves
1 cucumber
1/4 red onion
225g tender steak
2 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp lime juice (the juice of about 1 lime)
1 tbsp sugar
1-2 red or green chillies (or more if you want it hot)
Handful of mint
Serving Size : Serves 2
Method
Prepare the beef:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat .
- Grill beef as you prefer since Asians usually keep it rare.
- Cut the steak into very thin slices across and put it a into a bowl.
- For more favor add all the beef remaining juice into the bowl as well.
Make the dressing:
- In another bowl, mix the fish sauce, lime juice and sugar stirring well.
- Add the finely chopped chili and sliced red onion in the bowl and continue stirring.
Dress the salad:
- Then mix the contents of the two bowls together, adding the mint leaves.
- Dress the serving dish with the lettuce leaves and add thin slices of cucumber.
- Add the contents of the bowl on the serving dish.
Serve and enjoy!
