Crunchy Thai Slaw is a vibrant and refreshing salad offering a perfect balance of textures and flavors, combining crispiness, acidity, and a hint of sweetness.
Ingredients:
-
2 Cucumbers
-
2 Carrotts
-
½ head romaine lettuce
-
½ cup peanuts (preferably roasted)
-
2 tsp fish sauce
-
2 limes
-
1 tsp sugar
-
⅛ bunch cilantro (optional but recommended unless you detest it)
Directions:
-
Slice the cucumbers, and then cut those slices crosswise into little batons. Grate the carrots on the large holes of a cheese grater (unless you feel like cutting carrot batons like the cucumber -🙂). Separate the leaves of romaine, and cut each leaf in quarters, lengthwise. Then slice these quarters crosswise.
-
Toss these vegetables with the fish sauce, the juice of the limes, and the sugar. Sprinkle peanuts on top. Add some cilantro, lightly chopped, if so desired.
