Ingredients

• 30 g peanuts (chopped)
• 100 g edamame
• 1 carrot (cut into julienne strips)
• 1 spring onion
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 150 g rice noodles
• 150 g red cabbage
• 2 tbsp peanut butter
• 1 tsp yacon syrup
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• Coriander
• 1 tbsp soy sauce

Method

You’ll need: chopping board · knife · sieve

1. Cook the rice noodles according to the packet instructions, then drain and rinse briefly in cold water. This keeps them loose so they stick together less.
2. Finely shred the red cabbage, cut the carrot into julienne strips and slice the spring onion into thin rings. Cook the edamame briefly if they aren't already pre-cooked.
3. For the dressing, stir the peanut butter together with the soy sauce, lime juice, yacon syrup and sesame oil. If it's too thick, stir in a little water until smooth.
4. Toss the rice noodles with the dressing so they soak up the sauce well. Then gently fold in the edamame, carrot and red cabbage.
5. Finish with the chopped peanuts, spring onion and coriander. Leave everything to stand briefly so the flavours come together.
6. Divide between bowls and serve with a little extra lime juice if you like.
