This salad was eaten with small sausage balls.
I was cleaning out a pantry and found a package of Rice Vermicelli. Had only used up one piece of it. Now I needed an idea.
The other ingredient to use this week was a box of fresh raw sausages, aka Bratwurst. Sausage and rice noodles???
Pulling out the veggie drawer of my fridge, I took out some small carrots, one red bell pepper and lots of spring onions.
Now I needed a sauce for the noodles or a dressing for salad. I was still not sure what to cook. Then I took out the box of Ssamjang. Now the coast was clear. Veggie salad with Ssamjang, rice noodles and Bratwurst on the side. But still the sausage part was not solved. I decided to take them out of their casing and fry them as chunks in a pan. Good idea.
Ingredients for 2:
400 g raw sausage like salsiccia
2 blocks of rice vermicelli noodles
4 small carrots, 1 red bell pepper, 3 spring onions
2 tsp minced garlic, 2 tbsp Ssamjang, 2 tsp oyster sauce, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp agave syrup, pepper, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 lime
Place the vermicelli in a bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let then sit for 8 to 10 min, drain.
Cut up the veggies in different styles. The carrots with a speed peeler in strips, the pepper in battonettes, the onion in small rings.
Mix them with the sauce and the noodles. Fry the bratwurst and serve with the salad.
