Raw Pad Thai

Thai food is probably my favourite type of  food in the world. I love the taste of coconut and the spices they use, however I am not a fan of noodles and was keen to make a healthy version of my partners favourite Pad Thai.

Ingredients:

Pad Thai

• 2 Carrots
• 1 courgette
• Handful of green beans
• Half a white cabbage
• Coriander
• Prawns
• Handful crushed nuts (peanuts or cashews)

Dressing

• 1 TBSP soy sauce
• Juice of 2 lime

1. Juice one lime and marinate the raw prawns in them, set aside for 30 minutes.
2. Mandolin the carrots and courgettes and place in a bowl.
3. Chop the top and tail of the green beans and chop in half. Add to the carrot mix.
4. Shred the cabbage into thin slices. Mix all the vegetables together.
5. Cook the prawns.
6. To make the dressing, simply mix all the ingredients together.
7.  Pour the sauce over the vegetables and mix together.
