One of my favorite cuisines to cook is Thai. What I love about Thai food is the complexity of its flavors. In once dish, you'll find the beautiful marriage between spicy, salty, sweet and sour in what becomes one the most comforting food profile and an explosion of flavor!


This isn't quite your traditional Thai Larb. It’s usually made with minced pork and cilantro, but today we’re using ground turkey and basil (you can sub basil for cilantro). I’ll have to admit, turkey is NOT my favorite, so I’m always trying to find new ways to make it taste better than it does. Listen to me when I say this, you really can’t tell this is turkey! The flavors are dynamite. Have dinner or lunch ready in under 10 minutes.
