Free Healthy Recipe - Sesame, Noodle and Sprout Salad

Dairy free, Low fat, Low GI

This is a lovely salad to serve with a barbeque of fish or chicken, or on its own for lunch. I have also packed into small noodle boxes and served them as party food.

Ingredients
½ red capsicum cut into strips
½ large carrot, cut into strips
2 heads bok choy, washed, trimmed and chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint, chopped
2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
2 tsp lemongrass, finely chopped
2 cups beansprouts

Dressing:
2 tbsp tahini
3 tbsp sesame oil
3 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
Method

To make the dressing, shake the tahini and sesame oil in a jar until thoroughly combined. Add the remaining ingredients and shake vigorously until well combined. The dressing can be refrigerated until ready to use.

In a bamboo steamer, steam the capsicum and carrot for about three minutes each and the bok choy for about two minutes - take care not to overcook them.
When steamed, rinse the vegetables in cold water and drain thoroughly. Boil the noodles until soft and tender (about 4 minutes) then drain and rinse in cold water. Mix the steamed vegetables with the noodles, herbs and beansprouts.
Pour the dressing over the salad and serve.
