How to cook watermelon rind with chicken in Thai salad

how to make watermelon rind thai salad
Watermelon Rind Thai Salad

Thai salads often do not have raw vegetables or fruit as their main ingredient but use minced meat, seafood or noodles instead. Similar to salads in the West, these dishes often have a souring agent, usually lime juice, and feature the addition of fresh herbs and other greens in their preparation. Thai salads are not served as entries but normally eaten as one of the main dishes in a Thai buffet-style meal, together with rice.
I have made my style parboiled watermelon rind salad with chicken. Mostly we donot use the rinds but watermelon rind is full of nutrients, high in vit B and vit C. I don't have fish sauce at home, so i used teriyaki sauce. Follow my recipe for the goodness of watermelon rind.

Ingredients :

1. 1 cup of watermelon(thai : tang-mo) rinds + 1/4 cup of red watermelon
2. 1/4 cup of zucchini (alternate cucumber)
3. 1/2 cup of broccoli
4. 1 cup of colourful bell peppers
5. 1/4 cup of spring onions
6. 1/2 cup of onions
7. Boiled chicken (200g)
8. Spices
9. Butter - 4 tbsp or as reqd
