How to Make Tim's Tantalizing Thai Salad
- Whisk together 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon peanut oil, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, toss 1 pound beef strips with 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
- Heat 3 tablespoons peanut oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef strips and stir-fry constantly for 5 minutes, until browned.
- Add a pinch of salt and sugar. The starch may stick to the pan – this is normal.
- Add 2-3 Thai chilies (adjust to your spice preference), finely sliced, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Slice the romaine lettuce lengthwise in half, then thinly slice each half. Arrange on a serving platter.
- Top with the beef mixture.
- Scatter 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, and 1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves (or substitute with more basil and mint) over the beef.
- Drizzle generously with the lime vinaigrette.
- Garnish with 1/3 of an orchid (optional).
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
