Vietnamese beef salad with mint, cilantro, Fresno chile, and red cabbage - vibrant flavors in a big, communal bowl.
Ingredients:
  • 1 head red cabbage
  • 1 red onion, halved
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil, divided
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 red Fresno chile pepper, sliced very thinly
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon packed brown sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • 0.5 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
Instructions:
  • Start by halving the cabbage on a flat surface. Remove the core and most interior leaves from one half to create a bowl. Thinly slice the other half.
  • Chop half of the red onion finely and thinly slice the remaining half.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, sizzle 1 tablespoon of canola oil. Throw in the chopped onion, ground beef, Fresno chile, paprika, and salt. Continue cooking until the beef is browned and crumbly, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Combine the remaining oil, lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, and lime zest in a small bowl. Mix well with the beef, then transfer to the cabbage bowl. Top with sliced cabbage, onion, cilantro, and mint. Garnish with lime wedges before serving.
