Crayfish Salad with Thai-Style Dressing

While anchored in Darwin Harbour, with supermarkets nearby, I decided to make a romantic dinner for Dwayne. For an entree, I made crayfish salad using a crayfish we caught in the Great Barrier Reef. It is simple but looks great!

This is what I did…

I made a salad dressing by mixing:

3 Tbs of coconut cream
2 Tbs lime juice
1 Tbs soy sauce
2 tsp fish sauce
2 tsp brown sugar

I refrigerated the dressing until I was ready to use it.

Next, I prepared a small packet of vermicelli noodles by soaking them in boiling water. I drained them well and mixed some of the salad dressing through them. I refrigerated the noodles until I was ready to make my salad stacks.

For the salad:

I shredded carrot, lettuce and snow peas, then chopped some coriander and sliced some tomato.

Then I stacked the vegetables firmly into a mould, beginning with the noodles and topping them off with the tomato and coriander.

I removed the stack mould and then topped the salad with crayfish and dressing. Voila! Simple, colourful and delicious.
