Looking for a new salad idea to welcome spring?

This is a gluten and oiĺ free vegan salad which is really refreshing. Make it using the new Spiralizer tool, which is available in several dollar stores.

 

Balinese Cucumber Salad

Ingredients

  • 4 oz of dry roasted peanuts unsalted or raw peanuts toasted
  • 4 oz (100 grams) rice vermicelli
  • 1 English cucumber, spiral cut
  • 1 bunch of green onions chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro or parsley chopped
  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp chilli paste or dry red chilli flakes – optional

Directions

  1. Cover noodles with boiling water let sit for 3 minutes (drained).
  2. If you need to toast nuts, place in dry stir-fry pan on low and shake for five minutes. Be careful – they tend to toast quickly.
  3. Spiralize the cucumber then add all ingredients topping with peanuts.
