This is a recipe you can play around with and if you don’t have everything on the list, don’t worry - it will still taste delicious. The balance of flavours works super well, the sweetness of the papaya balances the salty soy in the dressing. It’s a super healthy and delicious salad!
I made this the other night as an accompaniment to a few other Thai inspired dishes - but this also works as a dish in itself! Let me know what you think.
The Recipe
Step 1
Shred the cabbage and slice the rest of the ingredients using a julienne vegetable peeler. Try and get all the ingredients really thin and of equal size.
Step 2
Shred the chicken, and mix everything together.
Step 3
Add all the ingredients for the dressing into nutribullet and blend until smooth.
Step 4
Dress the salad and mix thoroughly along with the cashews, to ensure even coating. Top with thinly sliced spring onion, slices of fresh red chilli, coriander leaves and lime wedges.
