Wednesday, January 26, 2011



This is the perfect take snack for every occasion. You can never have enough of this, especially when it served with sticky rice and the tangy garlic vinegar sauce. This is one of the must have dish everything I do eat Thai food, because it just tasted so good with freshly cooked steam rich or sticky rice! Of course there the hardcore beer drinking that loves this as their finger snack.
Unlike the our American’s beef jerky where you just bit into it, this one you have to pull it in strand and it taste just heavenly this way. Great snack for on the go when you need to have pack some light food on a road trip.

1 Tbsp of black pepper
½ Tsp white pepper
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
