Our take on a Vietnamese Noodle Salad is light, refreshing and perfect for those warmer days. Our Chinese Curry Sauce makes a wonderfully creamy, fragrant dressing when blended with mango, honey and lime juice.
Method:
- Peel the mango and remove the stone. Cut half into thick, matchstick-size pieces and reserve the other half for the dressing.
- Finely chop the herbs, including the coriander stalks, and thinly slice and chilli keeping in the seeds if you want some extra heat.
- Squeeze the juice from half a lime, and roughly chop the peanuts.
- Place the noodles in a bowl, cover fully with boiling water and place a lid or plate over the bowl to keep in the heat. Set to one side and leave for around 8-10 minutes before draining.
- Use a food processor to blend the second half of the mango with the Chinese Curry Sauce, honey, lime juice and sunflower oil until a smooth dressing forms.
- Toss the noodles with the chilli, herbs, mango matchsticks, prawns and peanuts.
- Split between two plates and drizzle over the dressing. Serve with the remaining lime cut into wedges.
