VIETNAMESE GARLIC SHRIMP (PRAWN) NOODLE SALAD



Vietnamese Garlic Shrimp (Prawn) Noodle Salad image

This is a great, fresh salad with a fantastic Vietnamese dressing based on a recipe by Bill Granger, a famous Australia chef. I really like this dressing because it's got plenty of flavour but the fish sauce is mild in it. I love Nuoc Cham, which is the classic Vietnamese dipping sauce that doubles as dressings. But some people find that the fish sauce flavour is too strong. Plus, it's an art form to get the flavour balance right!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 17

12 - 15 medium shrimp ((prawns), shelled and deveined (about 5 - 7 oz / 150 - 200g, excluding shells))
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves (, minced)
Pinch of salt and pepper
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup fish sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp caster sugar
1 large garlic clove (, very finely chopped)
1 tsp very finely chopped red chili (, adjust to taste (I use birds eye which is spicy))
2.5 oz / 75g dried rice vermicelli noodles ((Note 1))
3 cups iceberg lettuce (, shredded)
1 cup carrot (, cut into fine matchsticks)
1 1/2 cups cucumber (, cut into matchsticks)
1 1/2 cups beansprouts
1/4 cup coriander leaves (, lightly packed)
1/4 cup mint leaves ((ordinary or Vietnamese), lightly packed)

Steps:

  • Combine the Garlic Shrimp ingredients in a small bowl and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Combine the Dressing ingredients in a small jar, give it a shake then set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a skillet / fry pan over high heat. Add the shrimp, scraping in the olive oil and garlic from the sides of the bowl. Cook for 2 minutes, or until browned and the shrimp is just cooked through. (Note 2)
  • Remove the prawns from the skillet onto a plate.
  • Prepare the vermicelli noodles according to the packet directions. I like to just soak them in hot tap water for a few minutes, this ensures they don't overcook. Then drain the noodles.
  • Arrange the noodles and remaining Salad ingredients on a large plate (like the photo) or toss together in a bowl. Top with prawns (warm or at room temperature). Drizzle over the Dressing (or toss through), or you can serve the Dressing on the side.
  • Serve immediately.

6 ounces glass noodles
4 ounces sugar snap peas
4 ounces bean sprouts

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salad will taste. This is especially important for the shrimp and the vegetables.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just pink and opaque.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, flavor, and texture to the salad. Some good options include carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, and bean sprouts.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what will really bring the salad together, so make sure it is flavorful. This recipe uses a simple fish sauce dressing, but you can also use a vinaigrette or another type of dressing that you like.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This salad is best served chilled, so make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
