SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• In a large self-sealing plastic bag, combine shrimp, minced garlic, chili powder, and cayenne. Toss until shrimp are evenly coated with the spice mix.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium high heat. Melt olive oil and butter and swirl to coat the bottom the the skillet. Add shrimp in a single layer. (Do not crowd in pan.) Pan-fry about 2 minutes, then turn and fry until shrimp become pink all the way through and slightly firm, about 2-3 minutes. Do not over cook! Carefully remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
• Layer or toss cabbages, spinach, carrots, edamame, green onions, and sliced almonds, wonton strips, and cilantro in bowl. Drizzle with Chili-Lime Vinaigrette and Sweet & Spicy Peanut Sauce. Garnish with additional cilantro and wonton strips. Serve with additional Vinaigrette and Peanut Sauce.
• Combine all ingredients in a jar and shake to combine. (Remember to put the lid on first!)
• Combine all ingredients and whisk or blend until smooth.

PLA GOONG (SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD)

Steps:

• Bring a pot of 3 quarts of water to a boil. (I like to salt the water like pasta water; Kanittanon does not add salt.)
• In a large bowl, combine the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, nam prik pao and chopped chiles. Taste, and adjust with any of the ingredients, including salt. The sauce's flavor should be led by sourness and savoriness, but with a good balance of sweetness and heat.
• Cook the shrimp in the water until it just turns opaque, medium or medium-rare, about 1 minute. For better flavor, cook the shrimp with heads or shells on; peel when just cooled enough to handle.
• Add the shrimp to the sauce while still warm and toss; the lime will continue to "cook" the shrimp like a ceviche. Add the lemongrass, shallot, cilantro, mint leaves and makrut lime leaves, reserving a little of each herb for garnish. Toss, and place on a dish; scatter the reserved herbs on top. Serve immediately with hot rice.

THAI SHRIMP SALAD (SHRIMP YUM GOONG)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Warm a small pan over medium heat. Add the shrimp and let them cook on one side without browning. Once one side begins to turn opaque, flip them over until they are cooked all the way through. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside to cool.
• In the same pan over medium heat, add the minced pork and stir until cooked. Don't let the meat brown. Reserve the pork and juices on a plate and set aside to cool.
• In a medium-sized bowl, add the shrimp, minced pork, cilantro, spring onion, onion, celery leaves, and chiles. Stir until well incorporated.
• In a small bowl combine the fish sauce, lime, and sugar. Stir together until the sugar dissolves completely.
• Add the dressing to the ingredients in the medium bowl and give it a good mix. Serve immediately with Thai jasmine rice . Feel free to add more fish sauce, lime juice, or chile to the dish to taste.

SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the sauce ingredients and whisk until well incorporated; set aside.
• Prepare the vegetables. The thick outer layers of the lemongrass should be peeled away and only the tender, bottom 1/3 of the stalk should be used. Slice the lemongrass, shallots, red onion and chili peppers very finely.
• Peel and devein the shrimp. Brush a bit of oil on both sides of the shrimp and grill until they're cooked through. This takes only a few minutes per side.
• Toss together vegetables in a bowl and pour over dressing, more or less to taste. Then add the grilled shrimp to the bowl while they are still hot and toss everything together. Serve immediately!
