Kangkung Salad
Ingredients:
1 handful of kangkung (water spinach), cleaned and rinsed
1-2 tsp of your favourite jarred Sambal
A pinch of salt and pepper
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp of lemon / lime juice
1 mini cucumber, cubed small
5-6 cherry tomatoes, cubed small
1 small red shallot, finely sliced
2-3 tbsp crispy fried shallots
Spring onion, finely chopped
Method:
1. In a pot, bring some water to a boil. Add salt. Blanch the kangkung for a minute. Drain and rinse the blanched kangkung in some cold water to stop the cooking process. You want the kangkung looking green and crunchy.
2. In a wide plate, make your Sambal dressing by adding the jarred Sambal, salt, pepper, coconut oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. Whisk.
3. Toss your cooked kangkung in the Sambal dressing. Coat well. Top with the rest of the chopped vegetables.
