The ingredients for Thai Easy Tossed salad are:

1 small head romaine or leaf lettuce, or the equivalent in mixed garden greens, rinsed and dried in a salad spinner
1 green (spring) onion, sliced
handful of fresh basil
1/2 cucumber (see cutting instructions below)
optional: edible flowers to garnish, such as pansies (pictured here), nasturtiums, or rose petals

SALAD DRESSING:
3 Tbsp. Rice vinegar
1 Tbsp. lime juice
1 Tbsp. Soy sauce
1/2 tsp. minced or pureed garlic
1 tsp. brown sugar
optional: 1/2 fresh red chili, finely minced

Here is how you make Thai Easy Tossed salad:

Place lettuce in a salad bowl along with the spring onions and basil. If you're in a hurry, simply slice the cucumber as you would for a regular salad. For more formal occasions: Use a vegetable peeler and peel the cucumber into long, thin slices (see photo). If the slices turn out too long to eat easily, cut them in half or in thirds, OR cut them again lengthwise into long, thin strips. Add the cucumber slices or strips to the salad bowl and toss together. To make the dressing, simply stir the salad dressing ingredients together in a cup until the sugar dissolves. Tip: If you're making a larger salad, consider doubling the dressing recipe (you can keep any extra in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks - just place it into a covered jar). Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to combine. Serve immediately.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BIPOLARPRINCESS.
