Thai Banana And Green Chilli Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 bananas, sliced
1/2 head lettuce, torn into bite size pieces (or 1 packet mixed salad leaves)
1 cucumber, sliced
1 cup snow pea sprouts
1/4 cup mint leaf
1/4 cup cilantro leaf
1/4 cup roasted peanuts
2 green chilies, finely sliced
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 cup coconut milk (I use reduced fat)

Preparation

To make the dressing, place chillies, ginger, fish sauce, lemon juice, sugar and coconut milk in a jar with a firm fitting lid.
Shake until combined.
Combine lettuce or packaged salad leaves with the banana, cucumber, snow peas, mint and coriander in a bowl.
Pour dressing over and top with roasted peanuts just before serving.
If you aren't planning on serving this immediately it is a good idea to leave the bananas out, then just before serving slice them and mix them through.
