This is a tasty, refreshing salad that served as a main course. I marinated leftbover steak for just about two hours and it was definitely enough time for the flavors to soak through the meat. My entire family enjoyed it. Will definitely make it again!

Great salad. The meat could be used outside the salad for sandwiches!

Excellent. I cut the lemongrass finer than 1 inch so you're not overpowered with a mouthful of lemongrass. I've made this salad several times, once with meat straight off the grill (hot) and it is good that way also.

This comes very close to one we love at an authentic Thai restaurant . I cut down a tad on the mint and cilantro and used london broil that I had thrown on the grill the night before with another entree. Saves lots of time and energy! Thanks for a great recipe Mick!

I had fondu beef in my freezer that i wanted to get rid of and decided a thai beef salad would be good for it. I made a few minor changes to the recipe. I added a tbs of hoisin sauce. I also subbed the white sugar with splenda since i am diabetic. I omitted the lettuce and tomatoes, i only used cucumbers. I let everything sit in my fridge for almost 2 days before i ate it, and it was really good and flavorful. The sauce smelled very strong, but mellowed down with the coriander, mint, and cucumbers. I'd consider buying fondu beef to "get rid of" again for this.

Absolutely delicious! The lime dressing with cilantro and mint was so fresh, with the hint of fish sauce and chili sauce. It had a slight kick that everyone loved. Very authentic flavors.

I made this for a friend who loves all Thai food and it got 5 plus stars!!!!! I did leave out the mint leaves and used 1/4 cup splenda for sugar....it was superb! And a quick tip: my local Oriental market sells a big jar of frozen lemongrass minced for about $3.00...a very many more salads to come!!!!! Thanks!

I added carrots and snow peas as well. I also made a little less sauce than the recipe suggested and served the salad with rice. Whole family loved it, including my fussy 7 year old.
