Ingredients

Serves four as part of a shared Thai meal

Mung bean (glass) noodles, 150g

Fresh squid, 200g, cleaned and scored finely then cut into bite-sized chunks

Fresh raw tiger prawns, 200g, cleaned and veins removed

Sea salt, 1tsp

Lemongrass, 1 stick

Asian leaves (Chinese celery), a small handful, stems cut into 3-4cm lengths

Tomatoes (ideally slightly under ripe), 2 small and firm, cut into wedges

Spring onions, 3-4, cut into 2cm lengths

Thai shallots, 3-4, peeled and sliced (or ½ small red onion sliced thinly)

Garlic, 1tsp, sliced and fried

Coriander leaves (with some stalk), a small handful

Red and/or green birds eye chillies, 3-5

Garlic, 3 cloves

Coriander roots, 2

Lime juice, 4tbsp

Fish sauce, 3.5tbsp

Caster sugar, 1tbsp heaped

Lollo Bianco lettuce, a few leaves

Method

First soak the glass noodles in cold water until soft and pliable, for about 20 minutes. Once soaked, blanch the noodles in boiling, lightly salted water for 10-15 seconds or until just cooked.  Drain and set aside.

Now set a new pot of water onto the boil, salt it lightly. Bruise the lemongrass stalk and add it to the pot. Now add the prawns and squid and simmer gently for 30 seconds or until just cooked. Drain and set aside.

Next make the dressing: In a pestle and mortar, pound the garlic, chillies and coriander roots to make a coarse paste. Mix in the lime juice, fish sauce and sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Taste to check the seasoning: it should taste hot, sour, slightly salty and a tiny bit sweet.

Now assemble the salad: Add the cooked noodles and seafood to a mixing bowl, followed by the rest of the salad ingredients except the lettuce leaves. Toss through the dressing and serve, adding a few lettuce leaves to the plate.
