   • In a small saucepan, combine vinegar (or tamarind water if preferred), a little sugar, finely minced garlic, salt, and a small amount of sweet soy sauce. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is well blended and slightly thickened. Adjust the seasoning to taste and set aside.

4. Assemble the Salad:

   • Arrange the cooked beef patties or kebabs on a serving plate. Surround with fresh lettuce leaves, sliced cucumber, boiled carrots, boiled green beans, and fresh tomato slices.
