Advice

Add the herbs only after the heat is off so the filling keeps its fresh Thai aroma instead of tasting dull. 🌿
β€Ž
Why it works πŸ’‘
β€Ž
The warm savory chicken contrasts perfectly with cold crisp lettuce, while lime, fish sauce, chili, and herbs create the sharp balance that makes larb so alive. πŸ‹

Twist 🌢️

Add 60 g finely diced cucumber (Β½ cup / 2.1 oz) for extra crunch and a cooler bite against the heat. πŸ₯’
