Yearning for something quick & light...
...I decided to make my all time favourite meal for dinner tonight.
~ Noodle Salad with Oriental Dressing~
It’s one of those easy meals where U toss whatever U feel like eating into a salad, how hard could that be!
After a rampaging through my fridge, I gathered:
- Romaine lettuce
- Purple cabbage
- Yellow bell pepper
- Cucumber
- Spring onions
- Coriander - I used alot...about 2 bunches
- Cut the above into fine strips & set aside.
Let’s do the dressing next:
- 150ml Olive oil
- 30ml Sesame oil
- 120ml Soy sauce – I used Japanese soy sauce
- 80g Brown sugar
- 3 tbsp Ginger - grated
- 4-5 tbsp Garlic - minced
- Chili flakes – use as required
- 1-2 tsp Sesame seeds - roasted
-Whisk the above until it’s well mixed. (Taste & adjust to your liking…)
As for the noods, use whatever U fancy….I had mine with Korean wheat noodles today.
I also added hard boiled eggs & left over roasted chicken.
Put all the vegetables, noodles, meat etc into a big mixing bowl, drizzle the dressing, toss well & serve.
Throw in some piping hot garlic bread along side to complete the meal…yumz!
