Ingredients
For the Salad:
- 1 Roma tomato seeded and chopped, large
- 1 apple thinly sliced or julienned, large
- 1 cucumber seeded, and julienned, large, peeled
- 1 cup carrot peeled and julienned
- 1 Mango julieneed, ripe
- 1 cup bean sprout
- ½ cup red cabbage shredded
- ½ cup mint loosely packed, fresh
- ½ cup basil loosely packed, fresh
- 1 cup peanuts honey roasted, or cashews
For the Dressing:
- 3 lime juiced, whole
- ¼ cup cilantro freshly chopped
- 4 TB brown sugar tightly packed
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 shallot chopped
- 1 TB ginger freshly chopped
- 1 TB sriracha
- 1 TB fish sauce Asian
Instructions
- Make the Dressing ahead of time: Add all dressing ingredients into a blender (or immersion hand blender) and blend until mixture is mostly liquid (small chunks are fine.) Cover and chill until ready to use.
- In a large bowl, toss together all salad ingredients except for the nuts. Gently toss in desired amount of prepared dressing. Divide into individual plates and sprinkle nuts over the top. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Please don't skip the fish sauce, as it lends an amazing "umami" flavor to the dressing - it's not "fishy" tasting at all. Rather, it elevates the rest of the ingredients.
- Dressing can be made 1-2 days ahead; I like making extra to use for future salads. It's naturally oil-free and fat free.
