Delicious Vegetarian Asian Salad



   In winter hearty meals are quite often the go-to ideas in our household because we want to counterbalance the cold outside, but sometimes, even in the dead of winter I feel I need a veggie break and this is how this recipe was invented: a bit of online research, finding a sauce and then Oli's creativity :) It's so delicious I promise you'll want to have it again and again! Let's learn how to make it!

Ingredients for 2 servings:
*It's difficult to estimate the exact quantities of the veggies, so just use a little bit of each and add more at the end if you feel like it, otherwise you'll have enough to feed an army and you don't want that :P

- Noodles (2 nests /100g)
- Shaved red and green cabbage
- Shredded carrot
- Chopped green onion
- Julienned red pepper
- Steamed broccoli (or celery) cut into very small florets *steam just for 2-3 min so that it's not raw, not soft, but still crunchy
- Chopped unsalted peanuts

Sauce:
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 2 Tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 Tbsp peanut butter
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp honey
- 2 tsp sambal oelek/sriracha
- 2 tsp grated ginger
- 2 tsp grated garlic

Steps:
1. Chop the veggies as indicated above and steam the broccoli. Mix in a bowl.
2. Make the sauce.
3. Boil the noodles as written on the package. Drain and set aside.
4. Add the noodles and the sauce on top of the veggies and mix well. Bon appetit!
