Preparation
 

Mix the first seven ingredients in a small bowl, and toss the dressing with the remaining ingredients in a salad bowl.

This makes a great accompaniment to most Asian meals, from Thai to Indian to Chinese.

I like varying the salad with whichever extra ingredients I have on hand. I encourage creativity!
