MY O MY.. BEST THAI BEEF SALAD EVER!



My O My.. Best Thai Beef Salad Ever! image

This is one of the best Thai salads I have ever tasted and I just had to share it with my zaar family. Try it, you won't regret it. You can substitute the beef with the same amount of Pork fillets, chicken breasts or thigh fillets, or some firm tofu. When preparing this salad in advance, cook the beef, prepare the salad, and make the dressing, BUT STORE EACH IN SEPARATE CONTAINERS. Do NOT combine until you are ready to serve. This is an ideal portable lunch or picnic dish that can be transported in 3 small containers, and assembled on the spot.

SHAKING BEEF



Shaking Beef image

This savory-sweet stir-fry, known as bo luc lac or "dice" in Vietnamese, gets its English name from the constant shaking of the pan performed by the cook while browning the meat. It can be tough work to move the hot wok constantly, and the intense heat can burn the ingredients in a wink. This recipe, adapted from the one served at Slanted Door, Charles Phan's immensely popular Vietnamese restaurant in San Francisco, has been simplified for the home cook. Once the meat is marinated, it is quick work - 20 minutes from start to finish - but don't try to expedite matters further by dumping all of the meat into the wok at once. Cook the meat in two batches (a pound at a time) so you get a nice, crisp sear.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 to 2 pounds beef tenderloin (filet mignon), trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons sugar
Salt and pepper
5 tablespoons neutral oil, like corn or canola
1/4 cup rice-wine vinegar
1/4 cup rice or white wine
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 red onion, peeled and sliced thin
3 scallions, trimmed and cut in 1-inch lengths
2 tablespoons butter
2 bunches watercress, washed and dried, or 1 head red leaf lettuce, washed, dried and separated into leaves
2 limes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Marinate meat with garlic, half the sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1 tablespoon oil for about 2 hours. (Refrigerate if your kitchen is very warm.) Meanwhile, combine vinegar, remaining sugar, wine, soy sauce and fish sauce. Taste, and add salt and pepper if necessary. Mix about 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
  • Divide the meat into 2 portions, and do the same with the onion and scallions. Put a wok or a large skillet over maximum heat, and add about 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil smokes, add the meat in one layer. Let it sit until a brown crust forms, and turn to brown the other side. Browning should take less than 5 minutes. Add half the onion and half the scallions, and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add about half the vinegar mixture, and shake pan to release the beef, stirring if necessary. Add half the butter, and shake pan until butter melts. Remove meat, and repeat.
  • Serve beef over watercress or lettuce leaves, passing salt and pepper mixture and lime wedges at the table.

GREEN PAPAYA SALAD



Green Papaya Salad image

In Isan (and the rest of Thailand), green papaya salad is called som tum, with "som" meaning "sour" and "tum" referring to the pounding sound of the large pestle used to crush ingredients. It is eaten by itself as a snack, or with marinated grilled beef and chicken.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large or 2 small cloves garlic, peeled
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon dry-roasted salted peanuts, more for garnish
2 fresh bird chilies or serrano chilies, sliced
1/2 teaspoon raw sugar or white sugar
1 tablespoon dried shrimp (optional)

1/2 pound long beans, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths (optional)
1 small to medium green (unripe) papaya (see Note)
Lettuce for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a blender or mortar, blend or pound garlic, salt, peanuts, chilies, sugar and shrimp (if using) into a paste. Transfer to a large bowl and mix in lime juice and fish sauce. Use a spoon (or the mortar) to lightly crush tomatoes and beans (if using), then add to bowl and mix lightly.
  • Peel and coarsely grate or shred papaya, discarding seeds and inner membrane. There should be 4 to 6 cups.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality beef. Look for flank steak, skirt steak, or rib eye steak.
  • Be sure to slice the beef against the grain. This will make it more tender and easier to chew.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the beef, you can skip that step. However, marinating the beef will help to tenderize it and add more flavor.
  • Be careful not to overcook the beef. It should be cooked to medium-rare or medium, depending on your preference.
  • Use fresh herbs and vegetables in your salad. This will give it the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. You can add or omit ingredients to suit your taste.

Conclusion:

Thai beef salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is also a healthy option, as it is packed with protein and vegetables. If you are looking for a new and exciting salad recipe, be sure to try this one. You won't be disappointed!
