Last weeks Chef-Explorer cooking classes finished with a very winter warming Moroccan Tagine, with lots of chilli! Spring is definitely in the air here, in Western Australia , so it is time for my 'Thai Beef Salad'.Thai cuisine includes the great flavours of lime juice (sour), fish sauce (salty), Palm sugar (sweet) and of course Chilli (Hot) again! Which will also go in the very 'more-ish' 'Prawn and Corn fritters' as a starter.
All this chilli is just an excuse for another cold beer really!!

This video shows the main points. For Vegetarains you can miss out the Ham and replace with another seasonal veg of your choice. Enjoy!
