Thai Wallaby Salad

Ingredients

1 pkt wallaby fillet

1 clove garlic peeled

4 tbsp chopped coriander

1 trimmed coriander root - washed & chopped

1 small green chilli - deseeded & chopped

juice of 1 lime

1 tsp fish sauce

2 tsp sugar

mixed Asian lettuce leaves or similar

1 small cucumber - washed & roughly diced

snow pea shoots

fresh mint leaves.

Method 

Grind the garlic, coriander leaves and root, chilli, juice, fish sauce and sugar in a mortar & pestle until a paste. 

Coat the wallaby with a little olive oil and sear in a hot pan.  Cook for a couple of minutes either side.  Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Slice the cooked meat if desired, across the grain & toss in the paste.

Place the lettuce leaves, cucumber, pea shoots, torn mint leaves & wallaby in a large mixing bowl.  Toss gently and serve.
