CHICKEN BARBECUED PORK AND NOODLE SALAD

Because you simply slice the cooked meat for this salad, buy the best-quality pork fillet available from your nearest Asian barbecued-meat takeaway shop - don't forget to buy the pickled ginger there, too.

200 g daikon
800 g fresh egg noodles
1/4 cup drained pickled ginger
500 g Chinese barbecued pork, sliced thinly
150 g snow peas, sliced thinly
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted cashews

CHILI DRESSING
2 teaspoons sambal oelek
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1/3 cup peanut oil
1/3 cup lime juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon brown sugar

Cut daikon into 5cm lengths; cut lengths into matchstick-sized pieces.

Place noodles in large heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water, stand about 2 minutes or until just tender; drain.

Cut ginger into narrow strips.

Gently toss daikon, noodles, ginger, pork, snow peas and nuts in large bowl with dressing.

CHILI DRESSING
Combine ingredients in screw-top jar; mix well.

Serves 4.

TIP: You need to buy a medium-sized daikon, the Japanese carrot-shaped large white radish, in order to have the 200g of trimmed peeled uncooked daikon required for this recipe.
