Thai Spicy Beef Salad (Nue Nam Tok)

This is a very refreshing salad with distinctive flavours from lemon grass and roasted rice crumbs. I add celeries and tomatoes as they give the dish a crunch and natural sweetness. Serve it in a cup of iceberg lettuce as a canapé.

This is part of a Creative leftover series using leftover Roast beef.
