Tasty Thai Beef & Mango Salad | Donal Skehan


now I don’t know whose great idea it is
Bosch we’re outside it’s been raining
all day and finally it’s cleared off so
we’re going to cook some pie beet mango
salad it is so so delicious and it’s one
of my favorite dishes I found on my
travels to Thailand now I’ve got these
beautiful steaks they’re marinating in a
little bit of light soy sauce and sesame
oil nice hot pan and I’m going to get
them straight on in there and get them
cooking so you want to get a good sizzle
I’ll do me nicely and we’re going to fry
these for about two or three minutes on
either side until they’re medium-rare
now while s frying I have some chili and
garlic which I’m just going to finely
chop now you might notice we have
company on set today my lovely little
dog Max is there hanging out with us
owner max hey all right
just smell the steaks I think he does
he’s getting hungry so give a nice fine
chop to your chilies good clove of
garlic here chop them all together so
you get a nice even finish on your dice
and actually the smell of that steak
tells me it’s ready to turn so I’m just
going to give them a quick turn nice bit
of color on those sides and now I need
to crack on with my dressing so I have a
little bit of castor sugar that goes
into a bowl alongside the juice of a
lime so slice that in half and you’ll
squeeze it on it and what I love about
cooking outdoors is that if this is my
garden so you know all these organic
Ling’s can go up to the compost heap up
there I hope anyway let’s see if that
someone would be given it my next-door
neighbor would be given a droid same so
just whisk that together when the sugar
has completely dissolved it’s time for
some fish sauce now fish sauce is one of
those ingredients that kind of just
smells like your granny’s feet it’s one
of those really intense ones that maybe
not by itself taste very good but add it
to something like this and you get this
whack of salty flavor so add a good
tablespoon on a bit in here and like any
good dressing you need to make sure that
you’ve got your balance of flavors just
right so dip your finger in there give
it a taste
Oh such a really strong acidity from
that lime beautiful saltiness from the
fish sauce and now we’re going to whack
in our chili and our garlic and that’s
just going to ramp up the ingredients
and flavors in here now our dressing is
made we can set this aside and check on
our steaks which look to be pretty done
so I’m going to take them out and leave
them to rest go a bit of color on both
sides and with any steak anytime you’re
cooking it’s rock so so important to let
it rest under some tinfoil for about the
amount of time it’s been cooking and
this just allows you to get this really
wonderful tender meat so I’m parcel that
off and now it’s time to crack on with
my mango slice it up nice and thinly I’m
going to grab a few spring onions and
just slice them pointy too now I need to
toss all my lovely ingredients together
so we’ve got our spring onions going
straight in here we’ve got our salad
leaves going in here we’ve got spring
onions bean sprays go in throw over that
beautiful dressing we’ve made so just
drizzle that the whole way over you know
this is lovely lovely lovely and then
sprinkle in some peanuts just salted
peanuts in here a really nice bit of
texture and crunch just pick off a good
handful of mint and this adds wonderful
freshness and that’s exactly what I’m
after here coriander goes in there as
well and then we’ll get our mango in
here and then using our aardvark hands
my favorite utensil in the kitchen just
toss all that through all those
wonderful flavors and ingredients these
are totally the flavours I get very
excited about and if you’re excited
