The week after a big holiday with lots of heavy food, (cause yes, chocolate is food,) it is a great idea to think a bit lighter on the food affair. And since spring is here, temperatures are rising, it is natural to think different kinds of salads and fresh foods.
The noodle salad is so tasty, as soon as I made it the first time, it became my fast favorite. The sweetness of the mango and cucumber, the heat from the chili pepper, saltiness of the peanuts, the textures, it all just balances so nicely. I love to serve some Naan bread on the side, and if you so desire, soya sauce can be drizzled on the salad on your plate.
This is a quick to make, and is perfect to take with you to work the next day, if you so desire. And of course, if someone is not a fan of fish, it can either be admitted or served on the side. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do
~ Cheers!
