Thai beef salad, a staple on many a restaurant menu in the early 2000’s, was probably as close to being authentic Thai food as the Chinese food available from your local Chinese buffet restaurant of the same time period. A good quick salad none the less and is just as good for lunch or dinner or as a side salad if you minus the steak. The dressing can be the hardest part of all to make but this two ingredient dressing makes it a breeze.
