Step 2: Slice the onion thinly. Wash the cabbage and cut into small strands. Remove cucumber seeds and slice thinly. Peel the carrot and slice into long strips.

Step 3: While waiting for the beef to marinate, you can make the salad dressing. Prepare the dressing according to the recipe, including: 2 tablespoons of fish sauce + 1 tablespoon of minced garlic + 2 tablespoons of sugar + 4 tablespoons of lime juice + 1 tablespoon of minced chili. Then mix the ingredients thoroughly to create the salad dressing mixture.

Step 4: After marinating the beef for enough time, heat some cooking oil in a pan and sauté the garlic until fragrant. When the garlic becomes fragrant and golden, turn the heat up high and add the beef, stirring evenly. When the beef is just cooked, turn off the heat. Avoid cooking for too long as the beef will become tough and lose its sweetness.

Step 5: Take a clean small tray, arrange cucumber, purple cabbage, white cabbage, onion, and coriander on top. Then divide the prepared salad dressing into 2 portions. When ready to eat, mix the arranged ingredients thoroughly. Then add the beef and sprinkle peanuts on top for a visually appealing and enticing dish. When starting to eat, pour the remaining salad dressing over and mix well to enjoy.

• To make the salad more delicious and high-quality, choose beef tenderloin with bright red color, with intertwining white veins. When touched, it should be firm without being sticky. Avoid buying pieces of meat with a purple hue or white spots.
• Choose carrots with a bright orange color, medium size. Avoid buying carrots that are too large, as they may be old or soft and not fresh.
• To choose fresh and delicious white cabbage and purple cabbage, look for ones with smooth, shiny outer skins and vibrant colors. When held, they should feel firm, with crisp, tightly packed leaves. Especially avoid buying cabbage that is soft, wilted, has black spots, or cracks.
• To buy tasty cucumbers, choose ones that are slender, straight, and have a bright, vibrant color. The skin should still have a layer of white powder on top. Avoid choosing cucumbers with yellow or dented spots, or ones that are damaged.
