Laab - Thai Ground Meat Salad image

This is one of my favorite Thai recipes. It can be made with ground beef, lamb or chicken. It should be eaten at room temperature, over rice, mixed with cellaphane noodles or wrapped in lettuce leaves. Because it can be served cool, it is ideal for a dinner buffet or served as appetizers, wrapped in lettuce.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but I was able to enjoy this laab by adjusting the amount of chili peppers.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, but I still really enjoyed this laab. The other flavors are so strong that the cilantro doesn't overpower them.
