Carrot, broccoli and mungbean salad with tamari lime dressing.



CHEF'S NOTE: I make this a lot, and it keeps reasonably well so long as you don't drench it in dressing.  I never use the cucumber or spring onions - though I do like to add tamari almonds at the end, for deliciousness.

Ingredients

Serves: 8
  • 3 cups grated carrots
  • 2 cups broccoli coleslaw or finely julienned broccoli stalks
  • 2 cups mung bean sprots
  • 1 large cucumber peeled, seeded and julienned
  • 2 cups (2 bunches) fresh coriander chopped finely
  • 1 bunch of spring onions sliced finely

  • To make the dressing:
  • just over 1/2 cup cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 3 Tbsp cold pressed sesame oil
  • 2 Tbsp agave nectar
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp wheat-free tamari
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 Tbsp fresh minced green chilli depending on the heat
  • 3 - 4 tsp freshly minced garlic

Preparation method

Prep: 10 minutes
5.
Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped raw nuts if desired. YUM
