Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 18

Peanut Sauce:
-3/4 cup natural-style creamy peanut butter
-1/3 cup water
-2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (from about -1 1/2 medium limes)
-4 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce or 3 teaspoons salt
-3 tablespoon granulated sugar or honey
-2 1/4 teaspoons chile-garlic paste
-1 medium garlic clove, mashed to a paste
-1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
-1/2 cup Rice Vinegar

Salad Ingredients:
-4 ounces dried rice stick noodles or rice vermicelli
-16 small fresh cilantro sprigs
-1 medium cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
-1 small head of crisp lettuce, chopped
-5 carrots chopped
-Optional - Cooked chicken or shrimp

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all of the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl, set aside. 2. Cook the noodles in boiling water for 2-3 minutes or until al dente; do not overcook, or they will become mushy.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your salad the best flavor and texture. Try to use a variety of colors and textures for a more vibrant and interesting salad.
  • Don't Overcook the Noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, meaning they should still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked noodles will become mushy and ruin the texture of the salad.
  • Use a Savory Dressing: The dressing is what brings all the flavors of the salad together. Use a dressing that is savory, slightly sweet, and tangy. A simple vinaigrette or Asian-inspired dressing is a good option.
  • Add Some Crunch: Adding some crunchy elements to your salad will give it a nice contrast in texture. Try adding some toasted nuts, crispy wontons, or shredded carrots.
  • Make it a Meal: This salad is a great main course or side dish. If you want to make it a meal, add some grilled chicken, tofu, or shrimp.
