This salad is a fresh and zesty accompaniment to grilled fish on the barbecue. It has almost no fat, heaps of fibre and we've kept the salt down by being frugal with the fish sauce in the dressing - a little goes a long way! If you haven't got a turnip, it still turns out fine.
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely shredded Chinese cabbage
- 2 Lebanese cucumbers, cut into matchsticks
- 1 small turnip, peeled and cut into matchsticks

- 1 small red chilli, finely sliced
- 1-2 tablespoons chopped peanuts
- DRESSING:
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoon fish sauce
