- In a pot or pan over low heat, cook the ground pork without oil until done. For a saucier dish, add 3 tablespoons of water while cooking.
- Transfer the cooked pork to a mixing bowl, or toss the salad right in the pot, like Thai street food vendors do.
- Add fish sauce, toasted rice powder, sugar, red pepper flakes, and lime juice to the pork. Toss everything together well.
- Add the shallots, culantro, green onions, mint, and coriander. Serve your laab moo immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
- Water - For a saucier version (and lots of dressing), add 3 tablespoons of water while cooking the pork.
- Toasted rice powder - You can make this yourself using my recipe for toasted rice powder, or get it online at Amazon.
- For variations, try minced beef, chicken, or shrimp.
- Pair this salad with sticky rice and fresh vegetables for a complete meal.
