Chicken Larb

Finally I am back and posting recipes! March was a quite month in TRTLMT HQ as we had several major events happen with the family so my focus was there BUT things have settled down and I am back on the TRTLMT recipe train. I have so many recipes to post now! YAY!

This is one of my most favourite Thai dishes. I love Chicken Larb. I love how fresh it tastes and how light it is to eat especially in the warmer months. I serve this cold in lettuce leaves but you can serve hot or cold and certainly serve it with rice or rice noodles. This is a great meal to whip up on a Sunday evening and allow the flavours to develop overnight. This then becomes your lunch or dinner on the run for the next few days.
This is a very mild dish however you can up the chilli level to increase heat.
