‘Vietnamese’ chicken salad
I made this a while ago using some poached chicken breast (from making stock) and some herbs from the garden.
I quick-pickled the carrot and cucumber in a basic simple nuoc mam cham (rice vinegar, fish sauce, garlic and sugar)…
…and stir fried the poached chicken until nice and crispy (something about poaching it first makes it crisp up really well in a little oil without drying out), before mixing everything with some rice vermicelli.
Success!
