Recipe by KitchenManiac

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.

DIRECTIONS

Brush the beef with a little oil and char-grill, barbecue, or pan-fry till cooked to your liking.
(I recommend medium rare for this recipe, if you can handle a little blood.) Set aside for five minutes and slice it thinly.
Place salad greens, onions, kaffir lime leaves, chili, cilantro, mint and basil into a salad bowl and toss lightly.
To make the dressing, combine the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice and sugar.
Stir the dressing well.
Place the beef on the salad and pour over the dressing.
Serve immediately.
