Instructions

Let’s start by taking 2 tablespoons of roasted peanuts. We are going to transfer these to a ziploc bag and break these up into smaller pieces by using a rolling pin.
Next, let’s get our veggies ready! I am using two cups of finely shredded cabbage, two medium sized carrots (sliced thin), 3 small cucumbers (sliced thin), 2 tomatoes (sliced thin), one bell pepper (sliced thin), some red onion sliced thin, and two to three tablespoons of fresh coriander leaves.

Mix well
Now let’s work on a super flavorful dressing! We are going to combine one and a half tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce, (if you’re using high sodium approximately half a tablespoon should be enough).
To this add half a tablespoon of red chili sauce, one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, one and a half tablespoons of honey, fresh juice from half a lime, one teaspoon of crushed garlic, and half a teaspoon of crushed ginger.

Give that a good mix!
Add the dressing to the salad and coat well.
If you want it a little more hot sprinkle some red chili flakes

Next, add approximately half of the roasted peanuts
Now let’s give the salad a good mix so the dressing coats all the veggies
Now let’s give it a taste and sprinkle some salt if needed

Finally garnish with the remaining peanuts and your salad is ready!
