Firstly, I have more exciting news to share - a new partnership with a local business called Deagon Bulk Meats.  They are a fabulous family-owned business, who sell quality meat and great prices.  I'll be showcasing some of their great products and it's a win for you, because if you mention Mums in the Kitchen, you can get a special deal on the meat used in today's recipe!  They're offering 800g of beef strips for $8, if you mention this blog in store, between now and next Tuesday.


So, onto the recipe...I adapted this from Super Food Ideas.  I LOVE Thai food and the flavours in this are divine!  The textures of the crispy vegetables (from Charlie's Fruit Market) and soft rice noodles complement perfectly, and when you add in the tender beef - it's just delicious!  You'll enjoy this one!


Ingredients (serves 6)

Nam Jim Dressing:
2 long green chillies (I used mild ones for the kids)
2 garlic cloves, quartered
2 spring onions, chopped
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon palm sugar or brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves

Salad:
200g dried rice stick noodles
800g beef strips
olive oil spray
1 green capsicum, cut into matchsticks
1 carrot, cut into matchsticks
2 green onion, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh coriander leaves

Method
Cook noodles in a medium saucepan of boiling water for about 6 minutes, or until tender.  Rinse under cold water.

Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and spray with olive oil.  Cook beef until browned.

Place noodles in a bowl with capsicum, carrot, onion, coriander and half the nam jim dressing.  Combine.

Top with beef and remaining dressing.  Serve
