Val's Broccoli Salad
Food & Cooking Tips
Broccoli Salad
I remember the first time I had this fantastic
sweet and sour broccoli salad at a friends house. I couldn't get enough
of it. I do make it during the year, but tend to think of it as a summertime
salad. It's super easy to make and
it gets better the longer it sits.

This spicy green bean recipe is taken from Madhur Jaffrey's Far Eastern Cookery book. She says in her cookbook that she got this recipe from a "long-toothed lady with a food stall ensconced right in the middle of the Weekend Market in Bangkok." We make this colorful and spicy dish when we're in the mood for something with a bit of heat. We would highly recommend you get fish sauce for this recipe.
