INGREDIENTS
Gold sweetener can be found in the supermarket.
Seasonings can be added to make a Thai fusion salad, or to add a change of flavor. Try Chermoula Spice Rub for a North African Beef Salad or try Cajun Spices for something a bit different.
Gluten free fish sauce is found in the sauce and Asian foods aisle in most supermarkets.
I use Gourmet Garden lemongrass paste in this recipe. Alternatively, use fresh lemon grass finely minced or grated .
