Thai Lotus Stem Salad

The Thai Lotus Stem Salad is a refreshing burst of flavors that takes the humble lotus stem to a whole new level. Crisp lotus slices are lightly fried, then tossed with red cabbage, bell pepper, raw mango, and onion, creating a crunchy base. A zingy dressing made with soy sauce, honey, garlic, and chilli brings the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and umami that makes every bite exciting.

What makes this salad stand out is its versatility; it works beautifully as a light lunch, a vibrant side, or even a quick mid-day snack. Finished with sesame seeds, and fresh pea shoots, the Thai Lotus Stem Salad is not just delicious but also visually striking, giving you that restaurant-style dish at home.
