Description
Lephet Thoke (Fermented Tea Leaf Salad) is a versatile dish in Burmese culture – it’s a snack, an appetizer, a palate cleanser after a meal and a stimulant more potent than coffee.
Ingredients

- 2 bird's-eye chile
- 3 tablespoons dried Shrimp, soaked and pounded to powdery form
- 3 cloves garlic, sliced
- 3 tablespoon peanuts
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
Directions
Soak dried Shrimp and pound until powdery. Deep fry garlic until golden brown. Roast peanuts and sesame seeds. Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Serve immediately.
