This weeks challenge at group was to have at least 5 super speed foods a day. To be honest we probably do this anyway but always good to make an extra effort.
I think the key to keeping salads interesting is to always have a couple of ingredients that you really like or that are a bit unusual. I love water chestnuts and bamboo shoots and they work just as well raw so adding them to this salad makes me a happy bunny.
This is the super lazy version, obviously you can chop what ever veg you like.
Ingredients
1 pack ready chopped stir fry including bean sprouts, bamboo shoots and water chestnuts
Ready to eat prawns
Dressing
1 tblsp soy sauce
1tblsp dark rice vinegar
1 clove of garlic finely grated
Small piece of ginger grated.
Fresh coriander coursely chopped.
Syn Free on Red or EE.
Mix the all the ingredients for the dressing together. Give it a good shake and leave for as long as you have.
Plate up the stir fry and scatter over prawns, then drizzle dressing over the top.
That's it, really that simple and soooo tasty. Obviously you can play with it however you like. I often use cooked chicken with it or even crab sticks as you find them quite a lot in Asian food. You could add some soya beans instead of prawns if you wanted to go veggie. I also sometimes add a squeeze of line over it too.
This salad is great for work too as the dressing improves with a bit of a rest just keep it separate to the veg. Maybe not before any big meetings though as the garlic and ginger pack a punch!
