1 For dressing, place chillies, garlic, palm sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until well combined and sugar dissolves.

2 For soy eggs, cook eggs in a saucepan of boiling water for 4 minutes; remove from pan and peel shell under cold water. Heat soy in a small frying pan and add eggs, rolling them around gently in soy until it evaporates and eggs have turned brown. Set aside.

3 For salad, heat oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add garlic, shallots, and ginger and fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towel; set aside.

4 Preheat a barbecue or chargrill pan; cook salmon for 2-3 minutes on each side. (Salmon should remain rare in centre.) Let rest for 5 minutes, then break into chunks. Place shiso, lettuce, chilli, coriander, mint, and Thai basil in a bowl. Spoon over dressing; toss to combine. Serve salad in a serving bowl topped with salmon, soy eggs (halved), and shallot mixture.
