Tips:

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This is especially important for the vegetables, herbs, and spices.
Don't be afraid to adjust the ingredients to your liking. If you don't like spicy food, you can reduce the amount of chili pepper. If you want a sweeter salad, you can add more fruit.
Make sure to chop the vegetables and herbs evenly. This will help them cook evenly and will also make the salad more visually appealing.
Use a sharp knife to slice the vegetables and herbs. This will help to prevent them from tearing and will also make them easier to chop.
Don't overcook the vegetables. They should still be slightly crunchy when you're done cooking them.
Serve the salad immediately. This is when it will be at its best flavor.

Conclusion:

Crunchy Thai salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It's also a healthy salad that is packed with vegetables, herbs, and spices. If you're looking for a new salad recipe to try, I highly recommend this one. It's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
