2 T. sugar

For the Salad—
Soak; Drain and Rinse:
2 oz. dry rice noodles

3 cups iceberg lettuce, shredded
1/2 cup carrot, julienned
1/2 cup cucumber, seeded, sliced into half-moons

1/4 cup torn fresh mint leaves
Softened rice noodles

Saute in 1 T. Vegetable Oil; Assemble Salad with:
Marinated shrimp
Crispy Wontons, optional

Prepared vinaigrette


Marinate shrimp with curry paste, sugar, oil, and salt for at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette and salad components.

Combine lime juice, sugar, ginger, fish sauce, and chili garlic sauce for the vinaigrette in a bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil and set aside.

Soak noodles in boiling water until soft, 3–4 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water, pulling apart any clumped noodles with your fingers.

Prepare vegetables and herbs for the salad, keeping each separate.

Saute marinated shrimp in oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook on both sides until firm, about 5 minutes total. Assemble salads, dividing components between two plates. Top with shrimp, wontons, and peanuts, then toss with vinaigrette to taste.

My internet is in and out. Good job Denise! I was saved and ready though...LOL!

Welcome Hydrocarbon! We'd love a review on the recipe if you would! I have it marked to try, just haven't gotten to it yet. I'm on for the Taco Salad from that book (Sandwiches and Salads, btw) Monday and did the Paella last night. The paella was so so...probably will not repeat. I have high hopes for the Taco Salad though!
