Ingredients
For the salad
- 250 g grated carrots
- 100 g mango, cut into small cubes
- 100 g glass noodles
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 tbsp grated ginger
- 1 tbsp Thai basil (optional)
For the sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- dash of sesame oil
- dash of cold water
- 1 tsp of Worchestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp red balsamic vinegar
- Freshly ground sezechuan pepper
- 1 tsp of salt
Instructions
For the salad
- Boil a pot of water, when boiling add the glass noodles. Follow instructions to see how long they need to be boiled for.
- Dice the onion and lightly fry till glassy
- Grate the carrots into the salad bowl (or cheat and buy pre-grated ones)
- Slice up the mango and add it to the salad bowl
- Add the ginger, Thai basil, glass noodles and onions to the salad bowl
Now mix the ingredients for the sauce together, stir until the hoisin sauce is no longer as sticky and then pour the sauce over the salad and toss.
I suggest grinding a bit of the Szechuan pepper over the salad once you have tossed it and then tossing it again.
