Method:
- Place the carrots, courgettes, apple, spring onion, coriander, tofu and peanuts in a large bowl and mix well.
- Mix the miso paste, vinegar, sesame oil and mirin to make the dressing.
- Mix the dressing through the vegetables and serve.
Tips:
- Fried tofu should be available in most supermarkets, but as an alternative, you can slice firm tofu and fry it in a bit of oil until crispy.
- This salad can be prepared the day before - keep the dressing in a separate container and mix just before serving.
- Mirin adds a little sweetness to balance the vinegar. If you don’t have this, use 1 tsp of sugar instead.
