Roasted broccoli and Mung bean sprouts salad
Roasted broccoli, a very everyday side in every household combined with a handful of steamed mung bean sprouts is no longer an everyday dish. Dressed Chinese style it is a delicate salad with nuanced flavors on white pepper, and sesame oil and the right balance of acidity from the rice vinegar. A little mint and cilantro adds a fresh touch without being herbaceous and the fresno chilis add a nice pop of color without the heat. Perfect accompaniment to a noodle dish.
