I have some suggestions you might like to try: 1. Use thinly sliced steak instead of ground beef. 2. Serve it over green leaf lettuce. 3. Add a stalk of lemon grass (cut into one-inch pieces) to the sauce. 4. use sweet chili sauce (buy a bottle in the happy-friendly adventure aisle of your neighborhood giganta-market for under four bucks) instead of your "Thai ground chilli" (sic). 5. Cook the meat in the sauce, then shovel them both into a bowl. Cover the bowl tightly using plastic wrap, then stick it in your fridge for about 8 hours. When you are ready to eat, throw it back in the skillet to heat it up, adding some thinly-sliced red onion to round out the mixture. Dump the concoction on your plate of lettuce. Add a big scoop of steaming rice, grab a fork and a beer and go to town. It never dawned on me that lettuce and rice could be eaten together with saucy meat, but I'll be damned if it isn't the perfect food; you got your three-course meal of starch, vegetable, and meat. The rice soaks up the sauce nicely. The lettuce cools the hot flavors of the dish refreshingly. It is all quite magnificent. If I were king, I would make it illegal to eat anything else. The punishment would be me tying your shoelaces together with a robot contraption that would make it impossible to separate the two laces. Then you'd have to make me some larb and tell me jokes about how not to make larb ("you take "chilli" and ground beef, add it to some "coriander leaf"...) That's enough punishment, I think.

Reading your ingredient list makes me wonder 'why?' because I'm a fan of each item. Perhaps the fish sauce had gone bad? I'll give this recipe a try at home to see if that was the issue.
