Cutting and picking the ingredients

Cooking the ingredients

  • Bring the water with salt to the boil.
  • Blanch the pods in boiling salted water for about 1 minute
  • Remove with a sieve or slotted spoon (you still need the water), and place the snow peas in ice water.
  • Cook the noodles as described on the packaging.
  • Drain them and cool them briefly under cold water. (the noodles don't have to be stone cold, just the high heat has to be removed)

The ketjap peanut sauce

  • Crush the garlic and ginger with a mortar until it becomes a fine paste. This releases the flavors nicely.
  • Grate a lime and add it.
  • Cut both limes in half and pound out the juices in a mortar. Then remove the limes
  • Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, and sesame oil and mix together so that your sauce is an even mass.

Finish the salad

  • Place the noodles, cucumber, soy beans, red pepper and cashew nuts together in the bowl.
  • Add the ketjap peanut sauce and mix it together.
  • Season with salt and pepper to your own taste.
  • Sprinkle the picked coriander leaves over the salad.
