Asian-ish salmon salad

This was the result of banging together what we happened to have in the fridge, rather than buying ingredients on purpose. The result was quite tasty.

Notes: It was a little light on sauce, and the sauce might have been better with some lime juice. Also next time, dress the lettuce lightly too.

400g grilled salmon, flaked
2 small carrots, grated
4 scallions, chopped
Fresh basil and mint, chopped
About 1/4 mango, in small cubes
1 head of lettuce

sauce:
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 chili, minced

Thai jasmine rice

Mix the salad ingredients together. Mix the sauce ingredients together. Then mix the sauce with the salad. Make a bed of lettuce on a plate, put the hot rice on top, then put the salad on top of the rice.

This is now the top of my 'Eats/Reads' recipes to try.

Especially since I'll have left over grilled salmon available after tonight.

/me adds mango to shopping list.
