Incredibly simple and snappy on a lazy Sunday lunch when I just wanted to whip up something to fill my belly – and not wanting to go out get more ingredients! Just use ingredients that are in my pantry/fridge/storage. Took me about 15minutes from start to my first mouthful.
Ingredients:
A piece of chinese dried meat (bak kua) – finely chopped. Original recipe calls for fried minced meat
Carrot and cucumber – finely sliced
A handful of mint leaves and coriander – coarsely chopped
Toasted peanuts – coarsely pounded
Half a pack glass noodles – soaked in boiling water till soft and drained
Chilli flakes, brown sugar, lime juice and fish sauce – to taste
Method:
Toss all ingredients together to mix and serve!
How simple is that! I have seen variations of this with cooked seafood or more herbs. Just experiment with it! It’s a light and healthy salad, just filling enough till the next snack time 😀
