The salad is eaten without the addition of charcoal, but the hungry can cook noodles or rice on the side. The heat can be controlled to your liking by adding chopped fresh chili, for example. Chili paste – and its quantity – can also be chosen according to your own preferences. The dosage of the instruction will kick off, but not so that the mouth burns.

The salad is not completely vegan, as the chicken’s minced meat is an integral part of this recipe, but you can of course replace the chicken with a vegan option. The taste world of herbs, chili and lime plays the biggest role here.
