Snap Pea, Baby Corn and Beansprout Salad

Fresh, nutty and so crunchy, this simple Asian salad is great for a light lunch or as a side for some grilled meat. It’s a chore to snap off the stringy tails of mung bean sprouts, but they look prettier and taste so much better without tails. If you can’t find fresh baby corn, then use canned one, but the taste and texture won’t be the same.

 
DressingSalad
  • 5 cm Ginger root, peeled and finely grated
  • 1 Large garlic clove,, finely minced
  • 3 tbsp Gluten free soya sauce
  • 1 tbsp Roasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp Chinese rice wine
  • 1 tsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1/2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 125 g Baby corn
  • 150 g Sugar snaps, halved lengthwise
  • 4 Baby carrots, ribboned
  • 150 g Beansprouts, stringy tails snapped off, washed and dried
  • 2 Spring onions, thinly sliced
  • 15 g Cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 40 g Cashews, toasted
  1. For the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a jar or bowl. Whisk everything together.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a griddle pan over high heat. Once hot, add the corn and cook until they are charred on all sides, 5-8 minutes.
  3. Arrange sugar snaps, carrot ribbons, beansprouts, and spring onions on a large platter. Top with grilled baby corn, and drizzle half of the dressing. Garnish with chopped cilantro and toasted cashews. Serve immediately with the remaining dressing at side.

    Looks lovely and fresh, especially on this sudden heat, we are 30C today. I am currently translating a novel set on Capri and it is filled with Italian treats and dishes.

    Preparo ensaladas durante todo el año, pero las que más me gustan son las primaverales por su color y sabor especial. Muy rica la que has preparado.
