Title: Laab Moo Isan (Thai Isan-Style Minced Pork Salad)
Categories: Pork, Citrus, Chilies, Rice, Vegetables
Yield: 4 Servings
1 lb Coarse ground pork (450 g)
2 tb Water
2 tb Fish sauce
2 Limes; juice of
2 ts Ground dried chilies
2 tb Khao khua (toasted-rice
- powder)
Fresh mint leaves
Shallots or spring onions;
- chopped
Fresh Thai chilies; for
- extra heat (optional)
In a saucepan, quickly simmer the ground pork with 2 tb of water
until just cooked through. We're aiming to avoid browning here.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in fish sauce, lime juice,
and ground dried chiles.
Optionally, add a small pinch of sugar for a hint of sweetness.
Mix in the khao khua (toasted-rice powder) for a unique texture and
nutty aroma.
Allow the meat to cool slightly before adding a copious amount of
fresh mint leaves.
Add chopped shallots or spring onions for extra flavor.
If you like it spicy, toss in some fresh Thai chile peppers.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed-your mixture should be tangy,
salty, and slightly spicy.
Serve your Laab Moo Isan immediately with lime wedges.
