LCTV: Yum Salad

 
 

Yum Yum. ;)

A Yum (or Ngum) can be referred to as a Salad, or a cooking techique/ method. Most meats can be used, but Seafood is most common. The dressing is based on Lime, Chillies, Fish Sauce and Sugar (Sourness, Spiciness, Saltiness and Sweetness.)

We prefer to use lightly cooked Squid or Cuttlefish, the texture is almost noodle like.

Laocook Yum Squid Salad

The version that we serve has the addition of Pineapple and Red Peppers. The former giving the dish a tropical taste and the latter giving the sauce its nice Red colour. Its very easy to make, especially if you have a Food Blender available.

Its a great dish at anytime, especially refreshing in the Summer.

    Thanks Nye. I only have backup of LC site back to last August before we migrated to this hosting company. This is from my external hard-drive. Remember my laptop was fried last December?

    Vienne will have to post the pictures again as I try to restore the posts one by one. It will take time but we can do it. :)
