SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD



Spicy Thai Shrimp Salad image

From Rachel Cooks Thai blog. She reiterates that slicing the shallots, red onion and Thai peppers very thin ensures the vegetables don't end up in your mouth in isolation. The lemongrass must be sliced paper thin, using only the most tender bottom of the stalk to eliminate tough stems. Prepare the greens then serve with the shrimp hot off the grill. The salty, sweet, tangy and spicy dressing ties the salad together

Categories     Greens

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined (keep tails on if desiring a dramatic presentation)
vegetable oil
3 cups chopped lettuce
1/3 cup mint leaf, coarse chopped
1/3 cup cilantro leaf, coarse chopped
1/3 cup shallot, sliced thinly
1/3 cup red onion, sliced thinly
1/3 cup lemongrass, sliced thinly (slice paper thin)
5 red Thai peppers, sliced thinly
2 tablespoons roasted chili paste (nam prik pao)
1 tablespoon palm sugar (brown sugar is a good substitute)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
salt

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!

PLA GOONG (SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD)



Pla Goong (Spicy Thai Shrimp Salad) image

This dish is somewhere between a shrimp salad and a ceviche - just-cooked shrimp dressed with a sour-savory-sweet mixture of lime, fish sauce, and sweet chile paste, then showered with herbs and chiles. In classic Thai fashion, it's combination of many tastes, each moment on your palate different from the next. It's a favorite of Pornpong Kanittanon, the Consul General of Thailand in New York, and the recipe is adapted from his wife, Jaisamarn.

Provided by Francis Lam

Categories     main course

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Salt (optional)
3 ounces lime juice (from about 3 limes)
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons nam prik pao (Thai chile paste in oil)
2 finely chopped Thai bird chiles, or to taste
1 pound large shrimp (1 1/2 pounds if heads-on)
2/3 cup very thinly sliced lemongrass (see note)
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
1/2 cup whole mint leaves
6 makrut lime leaves, finely shredded
Jasmine rice, for serving

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.
