Sabine’s Balinese Salad

Serves 4

Source: Sabine Luthardt Bali

This is a light and refreshing salad, perfect for those hot summer days. It requires no cooking and little preparation. This salad was inspired from Andreas’ and Sabine’s travels to Bali where she took a cooking course at the hotel. It is perfect to serve with a chicken sate with peanut sauce (although in Bali they would serve a duck sate).

Salad:

1

large

cucumber, peeled and chopped into ½” dice

2

large

mangos, peeled and chopped into ½” dice

1

green onion, cut lengthwise then sliced

1

clove

garlic, minced

1

Tbs

fresh ginger, grated

1

shallot, minced

Dressing:

2-3

Tbs

rice vinegar

1

Tbs

oil

1

splash

sesame oil

½

tsp

lime rind, grated

1

Tbs

lime juice

1

tsp

maple syrup (or substitute brown sugar)

Mix all the salad ingredients together and toss well.
Mix the dressing in a separate bowl, adjusting ingredients to taste.
Pour dressing over the salad and serve chilled.

Variations:

As neither Jim nor I care for ginger much, I opt to leave it out. We think the salad tastes great that way, but if you are a ginger -lover, be sure to add as much as you like.
