Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Roughly chop mint. 
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges. 
  • Cut cucumber in half crosswise then into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Remove outer layer of lemongrass, then halve lengthwise. Place lemongrass on a cutting board, cut-side down. Using the back of a spoon or a pot, forcefully hit lemongrass to crush, then chop very finely.
Toast peanuts
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer to a plate.
Cook beef
3
  • Reheat the pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef and lemongrass. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
  • Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
  • Add garlic, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) chili flakes and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.) Season with salt and pepper.
Make salad dressing
4
  • Add lime juice, lime zest, nuoc cham and half the mint to a large bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. 
Finish and serve
5
  • Add cabbage, arugula and spinach mix and cucumbers to the large bowl with the dressing. Toss to combine. 
  • Divide salad between plates, then top with the beef mixture. 
  • Sprinkle peanuts and remaining mint over top. 
  • Drizzle spicy mayo over top. 
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
