Mango Salad
This would have to be the best salad I have ever made it was soo delicious even if I couldn't find perilla leaves! I will definitely be making it again when Mango season is back here in the Whitsundays!

I bought two different julienne graters in Sydney in Cabramatta. One cost $6 and was made in Korea but I found it difficult to use without taking skin off my hand. The other cost about $12. It was a small corner shop that seemed to sell all sorts of bits and pieces.

This is a Westernized recipe version of the show. Since most Westerners could not handle the smell of the fish sauce, this version will kill the smell of the fish sauce.

My husband who lived and owned 2 restaurants in Thailand, was agreeing with every ingredient and every method as Luke explained them; amazed they were so very similar to the Thai version. We also stayed in the beautiful town of Hoi An and agreed with all Luke's comments, the prettiest town one could find in Vietnam. A wonderful program - and very authentic, as far as we are concerned.

why does the recipe on website differ from show. On show they say nothing about boiling sauce and also the ingredients for dipping sauce was equal spoonfuls of sugar, fish sauce, lime juice. Also the show did not mention the rice vinegar.

Hot Tips

Resting meat

Never serve roasted meat straight out of the oven. Instead allow the meat to rest in a warm place, loosely covered with foil, for around 20 minutes, This will allow the juices to redistribute evenly among the meat, rather than escaping onto the plate when the meat is carved.

Glossary

Pide

A flat bread often topped with sesame and nigella seeds. In Turkey, pide is traditionally only available during Ramadan when it's eaten with most meals.
