40 minutes

The multi-step process of preparing this salad uses different Asian techniques. It is recommended to quickly fry the leeks in a wok, gradually adding the seafood. And then it's time for the sauces - this time we recommend mixing fish with spicy-sweet and seasoning everything with cilantro and chili.

    Then add green onions and nuts. Again pour in five tablespoons of fish sauce. Lastly - cilantro and chili. After adding cilantro, the wok should be on the fire for a short time - so it doesn't lose its color. Serve the salad warm, beautifully arranged on palm leaves.

    2. Cashews: 100 g
    3. Fish sauce: 12 tablespoons
