Simple Steps to Prepare

1. Cook rice noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Slice the carrot, onion, capsicum and cabbage into fine strips.

3. Combine sesame oil, tamari or soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a jar. Shake well to make the dressing.

4. In a large bowl or serving plate, toss the noodles with vegetables, avocado, bean shoots, basil and coriander. Add the dressing and mix gently.

5. Garnish with black and white sesame seeds. Serve immediately, or enjoy while the noodles are still slightly warm.

The Wholesome Touch

Avocado provides a creamy texture and a source of healthy fats that help the salad feel more satisfying. Rice noodles are a gentle alternative to wheat-based noodles, making this recipe a lighter option that many find easier to enjoy. The mix of fresh herbs and raw vegetables adds crunch, colour and natural variety to your plate.
