Instructions

CRISPY RICE

Step 1

if your rice is still warm, spread loosely onto a plate and allow to cool for 20-30 minutes. Mix together the red curry paste, vegan fish sauce, sugar, cornstarch, white pepper, minced garlic and finely diced onion. Pour over rice and mix well to coat. Oil your hands slightly and form small balls or clumps of rice. Heat a few inches of oil to 190ºC and deep fry rice for 3-6 minutes until crispy. Clumps may stick together - that's okay! Drain on some paper towel and allow to cool for 15 minutes.

DRESSING

Step 2

Mix all dressing ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside.

SALAD ASSEMBLY

Step 3

Chop crispy rice up into smaller pieces. Place into a large bowl with all other salad ingredients. Dress with a little dressing and serve immediately so the rice stays crispy! Serve up on some lettuce leaves and garnish with extra shallots, peanuts and chilli.
