When the heat is on, this spicy glass noodle salad is the answer. Inspired by Southeast Asian flavors, it’s a dish that’s as refreshing as it is exciting, combining cool noodles, crunchy veggies, and a punchy dressing.
The dressing is where the magic happens: anchovies and fish sauce for depth, red chilies for heat, makrut lime leaves and lime juice for brightness, tamarind paste for tang, and olive oil for a smooth finish.
Simply soak the noodles, toss with prawns, cucumber, and fresh herbs, and let the salad rest. This step is crucial for letting the flavors meld together.
Versatile and easy to prepare, this salad is perfect for solo meals or sharing with friends. Adjust the spice to your preference and serve chilled for the ultimate summer treat.
