Ingredients
For fried wonton strips
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil approx, for frying - use more if needed
- 5 wonton wrappers each cut into 5 strips
For rest of salad
- ¼ English cucumber (¼ is approx ½ cup)
- 1 carrot medium
- ½ cup daikon radish
- ¼ cup lettuce shredded
- 3 oz salmon raw, sashimi-grade
- ⅓ cup pomelo (⅓ cup is approx 2 sections, or use grapefruit)
- 2 tablespoon pickled ginger
To serve
- 1 tablespoon plum sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon roasted peanuts
- ½ tablespoon roasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Warm a little vegetable oil in a small skillet/frying pan so that you have a layer around ¼in/6mm deep (you can also deep fry if you have a deep fryer). Once the oil is hot, cook a few strips of wonton wrappers at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Keep a close eye as they cook quickly and can easily get too brown or burn if left too long. Turn as they start to brown to cook the other side then remove and drain on kitchen paper/paper towel. Repeat with all of the strips of wonton.
- Cut the cucumber, carrot and daikon radish into chunks around 2in/5cm long then cut each into thin strips ('julienne'). This is often easiest by cutting into slices then cut each slice. Cut the salmon into strips and break the pomelo (or grapefruit) into chunks.
- Place the carrot, cucumber, radish, lettuce and pomelo in little stacks around the plate, each item separate. Place the salmon on the plate as well, along with the crispy wonton strips. Put the pickled ginger in the middle. Mix together the plum sauce and hoisin.
- Traditionally you then add the peanuts and sesame seeds before drizzling over the dressing and tossing everything together as a group. But if not serving as 'traditionally' you can just add and mix on plate as you eat.
