Ingredients

Larb dressing

  • 2 Tbsp fish sauce
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar

Larb salad

  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 chilli, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 500 g chicken mince*
  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • Handful fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
  • Handful fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 small Lebanese cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mung bean sprouts
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced

Garnish

  • Handful fresh mint leaves and coriander leaves, to garnish
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

Substitutions

Replace chicken with pork mince.

To add crunch, scatter over a few crispy noodles, fried shallots or crushed roasted peanuts.

Method

  1. To make the dressing, whisk together fish sauce, lime juice and brown sugar. Set aside.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or frying pan. Over a medium-low heat, fry the chilli and garlic until fragrant. Increase the heat, add the chicken mince and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. Turn off the heat.
  3. Add the spring onions, coriander, mint, cucumber, carrot, mung bean sprouts and red onion. Pour over the dressing and toss to mix together.
  4. Serve the larb salad garnished with fresh mint and coriander leaves, lime wedges and extra chilli.
Chef tips

If the mince clumps when cooking, break it up with a fork to separate it.

The heat in the fresh chilli is the membrane around the seeds so remove both the membrane and seeds.

My family love this recipe. It is always a hit! I drop my son Max off to football and can make this recipe and have the kitchen clean by the time I pick him up. A hump day favourite
