Prepare the peanut sauce by whisking together all ingredients in a small bowl. Add water for desired consistency. If sauce hardens slightly, microwave for a few seconds before use

Prepare vegetables. Finely julienne cucumber, diced lettuce and shred carrot

Prepare rice noodles to recipe instructions and allow to cool

Assemble your bowl by arranging noodles, vegetables and chicken together

Drizzle peanut sauce over bowl ingredients

Top with extra chilli flakes, if desired

Purple Cabbage

To create a brine, heat water in a small saucepan over low heat. Add in vinegar, sugar, garlic, salt and pepper

Simmer gently until the sugar is dissolved

In a large bowl, add cabbage and pour the brine over until cabbage is completely covered. Transfer cabbage and brine into an airtight jar and store in the refrigerator

For best results, allow to pickle for at least 24hrs before use

Additional Comments

Peanut sauce can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Will need slight heating before use.
Use pickled cabbage already prepared in the fridge.
