Thai Salad

By angielaine

I have found that using the marinade in the Asian Flank Steak recipe or Thai Grilled Beef recipe both go very well with the flavors in the salad. Kate grew her own lemon grass that was fine, like a blade of grass, which I have not been able to find, but it is much better than the stalkier lemon grass.

Ingredients

• Dressing:
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 1/4 cup cilantro
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp water
• 1 Tbsp fish sauce
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 Serrano chilies, minced
• Salad;
• 1 lb flank steak, grilled and sliced into thin strips against the grain
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• 6 cups Romaine lettuce
• 1 3/4 cup diced tomatoes
• 1 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup fresh mint
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon grass

Preparation

Step 1

Combine Dressing ingredients in small bowl and whisk together. Combine salad ingredients, except for steak, in large bowl and toss with dressing. Arrange sliced steak on top of salad and serve.
