Crunchy peanuts top this sweet, sour and salty salad. Aside from the most obvious ingredient, the complimentary flavours add a mouthful of texture and variety to the dish. Basil and lime bring brightness, while red peppers draw out the sweetness of a shallot’s pleasant sting. All this embraced by a light fish sauce to round out the varied flavours.
