Pieng Seen Nam Tok/Jeow (Beef Waterfall) As Made By Little Lao Kitchen
Pieng Seen Naam Tok is a take on a classic Lao meal (Pieng Seen & Jeow) which usually consists of grilled or broiled meat and a dipping sauce called jeow. We grew up eating this often with our family. It’s simple, yet so delicious. In this recipe, we drizzle the dipping sauce over the sliced beef, which looks like a waterfall (nam tok).
