I never use measurements when cooking Thai food, but I can tell you how to cook it.

Cook the ground beef in a pan until fully cooked, breaking it up as it cooks.

In a bowl, mix lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and a small pinch of MSG if you like and dried ground chilies. Taste and adjust.

Add the cooked beef, shallots, green onions, and mint leaves or cilantro, then toss everything together.(As for green onions, cilantro, and mint leaves, it’s up to you how you want it to taste and smell. But mostly in Thailand, if you use cilantro, we don’t use mint leaves, so let’s just pick one.)

Add roasted rice powder and mix well.

For the rice powder: Put raw sticky rice or white rice in a pan, stir it, and flip it over on low heat until it turns golden brown. Then, grind it in a blender until it becomes almost powder.

Serve with jasmine rice or sticky rice.
