About Larb

Larb is a flavorful and zesty dish originating from Laos and popular in Thai cuisine. Often referred to as a meat salad, larb typically features ground meat such as chicken, pork, beef, or tofu, mixed with fresh herbs like mint and cilantro, lime juice, fish sauce, and toasted rice powder for added texture. Red onions, chili, and other spices enhance its bold flavor. Traditionally served with lettuce leaves or sticky rice, larb is a protein-rich dish that can be made lean by using low-fat meats or plant-based alternatives. Its high herb and vegetable content provide vitamins, while lime juice contributes antioxidants. However, the sodium in fish sauce and potential saturated fats in some meats may be concerns if consumed in excess. Customizing the recipe with less salt or leaner proteins can make larb a delicious and balanced addition to a healthy diet.
