Thai Mackerel Rice Noodles Salad (ยำขนมจีนใส่ปลาทู)
Salad salad salad! I’m not the kind of girl who would order a salad when I go out. I love meat and carbs as the main ingredients for my meal. When I order something, I always try to find a meal that has a bit of everything like Thai salad. Thai salads are different from the Western salad. Their main ingredients are not mixed greens or lettuce, but mostly are protein and a bit of carb and a handful of fresh herbs, spice, vegetables, and/or fruits just like this recipe that I am going to share with you.
The Thai mackerel rice noodles salad is one of the salad that has all of the nutrients you need in one serving; protein, carbs, fat, mineral, and vitamin. The ingredients are including Thai mackerel, rice vermicelli, green beans, carrots, shallots, Thai peppers, limes, cilantro, fish sauce, and Stevia. It might be a little bit tricky for you to find the Thai mackerel, but if you live in a big city or nearby any Asian grocery store I believe you will be able to them at the frozen section. Sometimes, the store may label them as Indian mackerel, and it is like “tomayto – tomahto”. You may spend quite some time preparing those ingredients but once you get all the ingredients ready. After you have all the ingredients, you’re just going to mix everything up and Voila, the dish is ready to be served.
