A warm, yet fresh, salad
Creator
"Larb, laab, lahb, or larp, this salad has many names depending on the region of Southeast Asia, but the dish remains almost exactly the same everywhere you go. It's sweet, spicy, sour, salty, crunchy, fresh, warm... It's a dish that you HAVE to try at least once in your life. Often served with white rice on the side and fresh lettuce and cucumbers, this dish is one you'll never forget! One of the best things about this dish is its versatility, our recipe calls for ground chicken thighs, but you can use breasts, ground beef, ground pork, tofu, or ground mushrooms."
