It’s funny, but other than some nice greens with a tangy ginger dressing, I don’t typically do too many salads when it comes to my Asian food. I’m not quite sure why that is, however as a lover of crunchy shredded fresh veggies this, dish a super duper tasty. The depth of flavors complement pretty much any fish, chicken or beef entrée. As a matter of fact there are times I even do it solo for lunch when time is a factor. Simple & satisfying!

Nic’s Tips: I like to use kitchen scissors to chop the chives. It is easier and you get a nice angular cut.
