@chefphilli: Bored of health food that tastes like a punishment? This is for you. Pork and carrot larb — a Thai-Lao dish, one pan, twenty minutes, and one of the most genuinely glow-supporting meals I make. The five grated carrots are doing the work of an expensive vitamin A serum. The lime juice activates the collagen-building potential of the protein. The toasted rice powder is the chef move that makes the whole thing taste restaurant-quality. This is the food I eat when I want to feel like myself. Not less. Not restricted. Just genuinely well fed. Full recipe in comments. I'm sharing the food that's making me feel confident on my way to becoming a 2027 bride — follow for the rest of the journey.
1 tbsp rice (I used sushi but you can use jasmine)
1 tbsp cold pressed rapeseed oil (@mellowyellow)
500g 5% pork mince
1/2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp light soy sauce
5 carrots; peeled and grated
1/2 shallot
handful of coriander, mint, spring onions; chopped
1 birds eye chilli; sliced
2 limes; juice
toast the rice in a dry medium-hot pan then grind into a fine powder
in the same pan heat oil and brown the meat on high
add 90% of the rice powder sugar, fish sauce and soy sauce and cook down
add the carrots and soften
add the rest of the herbs, chilli and lime juice reserving half a lime to serve
Enjoy with a sprinkle of the rice powder and lime juice
