100g Coconut

20g Orange Zest

3 Chilli

50g Peanuts

50g Pickled Scallion Heads

100g Pickled Scallion Heads

30 ml Galangal

30g Shallots

20 ml Orange Juice

50 ml Lime juice

50 ml Fish Sauce

50g Palm Sugar

Instructions :

Rinse the rice, soak in water for about 10 minutes, then drain well. Heat a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add the rice and stir constantly until evenly dark golden brown and very fragrant, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Grind finely using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, then sift through a fine mesh strainer to remove any large pieces. Set aside.

Thinly slice the shallots lengthwise. Finely chop the galangal, pickled scallion heads, chili peppers, and bitter orange zest. Coarsely grind the roasted peanuts. Heat a frying pan over low heat, add shredded coconut, and toast, stirring, for 2–3 minutes. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine lime juice, bitter orange juice, palm sugar, pickled scallion brine, and fish sauce. Stir until fully dissolved and well mixed.

In a mixing bowl, combine dried shrimp, toasted coconut, chopped aromatics, and dressing. Mix well. Add roasted rice powder and stir again. Top with coarsely ground roasted peanuts.

Place the salad on a large plate. Let each guest spoon a little onto their own small plate, wrap in leafy greens with vegetables, and enjoy in bite-size portions.

For a vegetarian version, omit the dried shrimp and fish sauce. Season to taste with soy sauce and a pinch of sea salt, keeping the sweet-sour balance.
