Ingredients

32 gr beef
3 garli
8 gr shallot
2 gr coriander seeds
3 gr chili peppers
7 gr rice
8 gr scallion
30 ml lime juice
3 gr sal
16 ml fish sauce

Instructions

Fresh Raw Vegetables. * Adjust the amount of ground hot chili pepper to taste. Serve extra on the side to be added to the dish as needed. ** Make toasted rice by browning RAW rice in a hot dry wok or frying pan, and then ground coarsely in a blender, OR an acceptable substitute is to brown a commercial "cream of rice" in a hot dry pan/wok. Wrap the shallot and garlic in aluminum foil and roast on the stove for approx. 2 minutes per side till the content is scorched. Remove the content from the foil, mash together well (with mortar & pestle, if available) and set aside. Lightly cook the ground beef in a dry pan/wok until the pink is just gone, and place in a bowl. Let cool for a few minutes. Add fish sauce, salt, lime juice, and mix well. Add the mashed garlic/shallot, ground coriander seed, toasted rice, ground hot chili, chopped scallion, and lightly toss together with a fork. Serve on a bed of lettuce leaves and garnish with mint leaves. This dish should be served with fresh raw assorted vegetables such as: chunks of "yard-long bean", nappa leaves (select the more tender inner leaves), lettuce leaves (Romaine and other leave lettuces are excellent), celery, and so on.
