Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Notes
Asian fish sauce is available at Asian markets and some supermarkets.
Serve With
This crunchy, Asian-flavored salad will taste even more refreshing served with tropical fruit, such as pineapple, mango, papaya, or star fruit.
Suggested Pairing
A lively, acidic white wine that has no oak flavor will be best with the spices and greens in this dish. Try a Sauvignon Blanc from South Africa or Australia or a Pinot Grigio from Italy.
