Ingredients
- 1 corn sweetcorn
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 Chilies Thai chilies, to taste
- 2 tablespoons palm sugar chop to measure
- 1.5 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon tamarind sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 ounce peanuts roasted
- 0.7 ounces carrot shredded
- 1.4 ounce tomato bite-sized pieces
- 1.8 ounce yard-long beans bite-sized pieces
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the sweetcorn, cover the pot, and let boil for 7 minutes for a crisp texture. For a softer texture, cook for 10–15 minutes. After boiling, let it cool down and cut the corn into bite-sized pieces.
- Crush garlic and fresh chili peppers with a mortar and pestle.
- Mix in the palm sugar, fish sauce, tamarind sauce, and fresh lime juice.
- Combine the remaining ingredients (roasted peanuts, sweetcorn, carrot, tomatoes, crisp yard-long beans) and gently pound and mix until all ingredients are coated with the dressing. Serve immediately.

Notes
- Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
- Feel free to add your favorite vegetables or herbs.
- For a vegan version, swap the fish sauce for vegan fish sauce.
- This dish is best enjoyed fresh, and you should prepare it right before serving. It doesn't keep well, since the dressing will make the veggies a bit soggy.
