Larb is a delicious meat-filled salad.

4 garlic cloves, crushed
2cm piece (10g) ginger
2 long red chillies, thinly sliced
1 lemongrass stalk, white part only, finely chopped
2 tbs vegetable oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 tbs each fish sauce & soy sauce
Juice of 1 lime
2 tbs brown sugar
2 cups shredded leftover roasted turkey or chicken
1 cup loosely packed bean shoots
1/4 bunch mint, leaves picked
1 small iceberg lettuce, trimmed, leaves separated
1 bunch coriander, leaves picked, plus extra to serve
1/4 cup crispy shallots
Roasted cashews, to serve

Method

1.

Place the garlic, ginger, chilli and lemongrass in a blender and whiz to a paste. Heat oil in a wok and stir-fry the paste for 30 seconds-1 minute until fragrant. Add onion and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Add the fish sauce, soy, lime juice and brown sugar and stir to combine. Add the turkey or chicken, bean shoots and mint. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes to ensure all ingredients are coated in the sauce and the sauce has slightly thickened. Season to taste and transfer the turkey mixture to a bowl.
2.

Divide the turkey mixture among lettuce cups and top with coriander and crispy shallots. Scatter over roasted cashews to serve.
