Larb Lettuce Wraps
Larb Lettuce Wraps
Larb is basically a salad—made out of meat. It’s a meat salad from Laos that has made its way into Thailand and other areas of Southeast Asia, as well as here in the West. Like other dishes in Southeast Asian cooking, the dish combines savory flavors with fresh ones. It features fresh herbs like coriander, Thai basil, and mint.
