Tam Maak Taeng ຕຳໝາກແຕງ (Lao Spicy Cucumber Salad) and Ping Kadouk Kharng Moo ປີ້ງກະດູກຂ້າງຫມູ (Grilled Pork Rib) for dinner in Vientiane, Laos.

My Aunt Kian was the one making the Tam Maak Taeng. Aunt Phone was the one marinating the pork rib and doing the grilling. There was plenty of freshly steamed sticky rice for everyone to enjoy this simple and delicious meal.
