Hurray for laap!

I've made Yum Woon Sen many times, and this looks almost the same except for the ground rice. I'm gonna try this recipe this weekend since I'm making some Gai Yang and sticky rice! Yummy.

Yes, using fish sauce is the normal (non-veg) way of doing it, but there are plenty of vegetarians in Thailand who substitute fish sauce for light soy or salt. This dish should not be called Yum. It's Laap. Laap is defined by the herbs and spices, not by the meat or non-meatness of what goes in. Toasted rice powder, dried chili flakes, mint, etc make laap different than yum. The most common laap is made with ground pork, beef, chicken, fish, etc. But using glass noodles is also common in Thailand and is quite authentic. It's actually pretty popular right now in Bangkok for restaurants to offer this dish. People also make a mushroom laap, using oyster mushrooms, straw mushrooms, or any kind of mushroom really, and it's quite tasty. If you're looking for a more common laap, check out this non-vegetarian recipe which uses ground pork and fish sauce: http://www.realthairecipes.com/recipes/northeastern-pork-salad/ ThaiNut-

Thai Laap always has fish or meat.
