About Laab

Laab, also known as Larb, is a flavorful minced meat salad originating from Laos and widely enjoyed in Thai cuisine. This dish typically consists of ground meat such as chicken, pork, beef, or fish, mixed with lime juice, fish sauce, roasted ground rice, fresh herbs like mint and cilantro, and spices such as chili and shallots. Packed with protein from the meat, Laab is a filling and nutritious option, especially when paired with crunchy vegetables. Its vibrant mix of herbs adds vitamins and antioxidants, while lime juice supports digestion. However, sodium content can be high due to the fish sauce, and recipes may vary in fat depending on the meat used. Served warm or at room temperature, Laab is often accompanied by sticky rice or lettuce wraps, offering a balanced and refreshing culinary experience that highlights the bold flavors of Southeast Asian cuisine.
