Ingredients:
1 carrot, peeled with a julienne peeler or regular peeler to create long ribbons
1/2 a capsicum, cubed
1 raw corn cob, kernels shaved off
2 C bean sprouts
2 spring onions, finely sliced
1/4 C sesame seeds
FOR THE DRESSING:
1 lime, juiced
2 cloves of garlic
3 cm chunk of ginger
1 whole chilli
3/4 C tahini
1 T nut spread (e.g. almond butter or peanut butter)
2 tsp tamari
2 tsp pure maple syrup, or raw honey
Method:
To make your dressing add the lime, garlic, ginger and chilli to a food processor and blitz to combine into a paste (I use my nutribullet for this dressing). Then add the remaining ingredients plus 1/4 C water and whizz until smooth, you may need to add more water to reach your desired consistency.
Now the fun part - put some disposable gloves on and pour about 1/2 cup of the dressing over the salad and toss through your salad using your hands, add more dressing if needed until it's your optimum sauce-factor. Serve as is or alongside your chosen protein, this goes fabulous with lean proteins such as seafood, chicken and tofu.
ENJOY xx
