Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the Rice Vermicelli Noodles: Soak the noodles in a bowl of boiling water for 5-8 minutes or according to packet instructions. Once soft, rinse under cold water, drain and set aside.
  2. Make the Peanut Dressing: In the meantime, combine the salad dressing ingredients in a jar and shake or add to a bowl and whisk. If too thick, add a tablespoon of hot water at a time until it creates a smooth salad dressing consistency. (Tip: for extra flavour add 1 tablespoon sesame oil).
  3. Prepare the Salad and Prawns: Peel and devein the prawns, then slice into 2cm pieces. Place into a bowl and squeeze a whole lime over them. Then chop, slice, and grate the salad ingredients, optional use a mandoline slicer for the cucumber, carrot, and cabbage.
  4. Bring it together: Add to a large bowl all the ingredients, drizzle over the Peanut Salad Dressing and gently toss to combine. Serve and enjoy!
