To celebrate the spring , we’re sharing this fresh, bright, and delicious recipe for Crunchy Thai Salad with Fiji Ginger Almond Butter Dressing inspired by @jessica_gavin. 🥗
Here’s what you’ll need to recreate it:
SALAD:
- 2 cups sliced kale
- 1 ½ cups sliced napa cabbage
- 1 ½ cups sliced red cabbage
- ½ cup sliced red bell pepper
- ½ cup shredded carrot
- 1 mango, sliced
- ¼ cup cilantro
- 8 mint leaves
- 2 Tbsp sliced green onions
- ¼ cup peanuts, roasted, roughly chopped
SALAD DRESSING:
- ½ cup Big Spoon Roasters Fiji Ginger Almond Butter
- 2 Tbsp lime juice
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 ½ Tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 ½ Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp sambal
- 1 clove minced garlic
-1 Tbsp warm water
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Combine the Vegetables – In a large bowl add thin slices of kale, cabbage, bell pepper, carrot, mango, cilantro, mint, and green onions. Then, set aside.
2. Prepare your CRUNCH – Roughly chop ¼ cup roasted peanuts. Using a small pan, toast them on medium heat for about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add to the salad.
3. Make the Nut Butter Dressing – In a blender add nut butter, lime juice, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sambal, garlic, and water. Puree until smooth and combined, about 1 minute. Alternatively, the ingredients can be whisked together in a medium-sized bowl. Add more water if needed to thin out the dressing if desired. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
4. To Serve – Gradually add enough dressing to coat the salad and toss to combine. Drizzle with more dressing if there’s any remaining. Top with freshly cracked black pepper and chopped peanuts.
