Thai Tossed Beef Salad (Yam Nuea)

By Thom7747

Adapted from on of Colonel Ian's Thai Recipes. Yam Nuea literally means "tossed beef". This is a simple beef "salad", and can be eaten hot or cold. Consequently it can be made with left over Sunday roast...

This should be on the hot side of neutral, but really is more spicy that "hot". However it is normal to add substantial amounts of hot condiments to it to suit yourself.
