In this video, I’ll show you guys how to make a famous beef salad also known as “nam tok”. This is a typical menu item at most Thai restaurants here in the states, but I believe it’s tastier making it for yourself at home.

Ingredients:
~ 1lb steak, preferably ribeye or NY strip steak (I used choice NY strip steak from Harris Teeter)
~1 1/2 TEAspoons Thai seasoning sauce (preferably the light one if you can find it)
~1 small red shallot, sliced
~10 pieces of dried bird eye chili peppers, crushed
~ 2 TBSP of toasted rice powder, add a teaspoon more to garnish
~1 TBSP padaek to start, add another TBSP after tasting if needed (don’t use a salty brand)
~1.5 TBSP of fish sauce, add more if needed
~10 pieces of mint
~2 green onion, sliced
~12 pieces of cilantro (or an appropriate amount), cut into thirds
~juice of half a big Persian lime
~dash of MSG

*you’re gonna end up with a good amount of toasted rice powder leftover, save it in an airtight container for the next time you make larb*
