    Altered ingredient amounts. I was very eager to try this recipe as this is one of my favourite dishes at a local Thai restaraunt. This salad was not as spicy as the one I was trying to achieve and far too sweet, however it was much better when I cut the sugar in half and added some diced thai chillies to the marinade. I like it served over rice instead of lettuce.  -  29 Sep 2008

    We love this recipe. It's just like the beef thai salad we order in our favourite thai restaurant.  -  29 Sep 2008

    Try these changes I bet you'll love them! Use red Thai curry paste instead of the chilli sauce. Next add bean thread or the clear silver noodles mixed into the salad!  -  29 Sep 2008
