Instructions
- Start by grilling or searing the beef steak to your preferred level of doneness. Allow it to rest for a few minutes, then thinly slice it against the grain.
- In a bowl, mix together the fish sauce, lime juice, toasted rice powder, chili powder, and sugar until well combined.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the sliced beef to the pan and pour half of the dressing mixture over it. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes until the beef is well coated and heated through. Remove from heat.
- In a serving bowl, combine the beef with sliced shallots, green onions, cilantro, and mint leaves. Pour the remaining dressing mixture over the beef and toss everything together until well combined. Adjust the seasoning with salt if needed.
- Serve the Lao beef nam tok with sticky rice and fresh vegetables on the side. You can wrap the beef in lettuce leaves or enjoy it as is.
