Traditional Laab Moo Recipe

Laab Moo Recipe

Laab Moo, also known as spicy minced pork salad, is a favorite in Thai cooking.  Pronounced and sometimes spelled as "larb", this dish is a blend of fresh herbs and seasonings that brings a real burst of flavor to the table. This zesty dish combines the tang of lime, the heat of chili, and the subtle nuttiness of roasted rice powder, a key ingredient that’s often overlooked yet makes all the difference in both texture and taste. The minced pork is carefully seasoned with fish sauce and lime juice, creating a savory and refreshing bite that’s full of character.

In Thailand, Laab Moo often accompanies an array of fresh vegetables, making it a satisfying yet light meal. Serving it with crunchy greens like cabbage or lettuce gives this dish a refreshing balance to its bold flavors.

To capture the authentic taste, Laab Moo is best prepared by hand, especially when it comes to the roasted rice. Grinding it in a mortar and pestle releases its natural aroma and creates a texture that enhances each mouthful. This step is essential to the dish, and the result is well worth the effort, giving Laab Moo a unique and deeply flavorful profile you can’t achieve by shortcuts.
