"I first had this dish when i lived in Port au Prince Haiti, a thai restaurant served it..i loved it and have kept looking for one that has the right spicing. It is a wonderful scented tasting heaven. Most of them have too few flavors but it needs enough of each herb. Of course people can change the amounts to their taste. Serve over rice or roll up in rice paper or lettuce rolls."

Excellent! I've made many different versions of Larb, but this one is exceptional! All the flavors are spot on. I made all of the meat, but only half the sauce and had a lot left over. I added some Chili Crisp to the leftovers and used it to drizzle on the lettuce wraps. So good!!! Thanks for sharing, Marramamba!
