About

The coconut dressing for this Thai speciality is traditionally made using fish sauce, but vegetarians could use mushroom sauce instead. Beware, this is a fiery dish!

Ingredients

30 ml/2 tbsp oil
3 fresh red chillies, cut into thin strips

Method

Make the dressing. Put the lime juice and fish sauce in a bowl and mix well together, then gradually whisk in the coconut milk until combined.
Heat the oil in a wok and stir-fry the chillies for 2–3 minutes, until crisp. Transfer to a plate
