Andrew Clarke's gourmet version of Thai beef salad is full of the authentic flavours of Thailand.

Nam jim is a chilli-based Thai dressing with a balance of spicy, salty, sweet, and sour flavours. This recipe sees a coconut green nan jim dressing added to tender sirloin steak and an authentic Thai-style salad. If you don't want it too hot, remove the seeds from the chillies beforehand.
