A Vietnamese Salad.
- 2 stalks of fresh lemon grass (discard outer leaves), thinly sliced
- 50 g each: roast beef, pork, lamb or chicken, finely shredded
- 1 bunch of spring onions, washed and finely chopped
- 2 carrots, finely grated
- 1 Red chili pepper, finely sliced
- 2 cloves of garlic, finely sliced and crushed
- 45 ml Nuoc Mam sauce
- 135 ml lime or lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
- 2 tablespoons coriander, finely chopped
Lightly hit the sliced lemon grass with the back of a cleaver or heavy knife (like you're bullying a nerd) to release the flavor and smell. Very important!
Mix the lemon grass with the meat followed by the spring onions and lastly the grated carrots. Remember the order because if you add the lemon grass last or like the carrots first it'll cause a rip in the Space-time continuum or something.
Mix the chili, garlic, Nuoc Mam sauce and lime juice together. Stir well. If you know some Vietnamese dude named Nuoc Mam do not mix his "sauce" in with your salad. Unless that's how you get down. No judging here.
Add the sauce to the salad and toss that ____ like a prison _____!
Throw in the basil and coriander and toss that ____ again. Don't be scurred. It's just salad. Plus there's no killer tomatoes.
Then eat that ____ and enjoy!
