New to the menu at Classical Thai: This is my all time favourite Salad. Its spicy, sour, salty and palm sugar sweet. But the main ingredient ‘galangal’ is what lifts it above other salads. Pulverised galangal gives it an added earthy, citrusy, slightly woody-cider flavour. Tossed with lime leaf, mint leaves, saw tooth coriander, basil leaves and lemongrass, its a highly flavoured herb bomb. The roughly pounded bitter peanuts and fried eshallots gives it an added cruncy texture. Finally, sweet creamy textured Crystal Bay Prawns from Northern Queensland are tossed through the salad.
