00:00Did you know that in Thai cooking, we make the most of every ingredient and no food goes too fast?

00:06Today, we're gonna turn the Nam Pika Phi left over into the whole new dish, GANG RAN JUAN.

00:11Nam Pika Phi is famous Thai chili dip. It's often left behind after a meal, but instead of tossing it, we use it to create something tasty.

00:20You'll need diced beef, lemongrass, shallots, chili, lime juice, and of course, Nam Pika Phi.

00:26Simmer your beef with herbs until it's tender, and add in the Nam Pika Phi paste. Finish it up with some lime juice and fresh basil.

00:34From Nam Pika Phi to GANG RAN JUAN, this is how Thai cooking embraces sustainability and creativity. No best, just more flavor.
