Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, then add rice vermicelli noodles and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until soft. Once tender, drain the noodles and rinse them under cold water to stop cooking.
- Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the carrots, bell peppers, cucumber, and green onions into bite-sized pieces for uniform mixing.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the freshly chopped carrots, bell peppers, cucumber, and bean sprouts. Add fresh cilantro, mint leaves, and green onions. Gently toss together.
- Carefully add the cooled rice vermicelli noodles to the mixed vegetables. Toss gently to combine without breaking the noodles.
- In a small bowl, whisk together grated fresh ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and chili sauce until smooth. Adjust flavors as necessary.
- Pour the spicy ginger dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
- Transfer the tossed salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Optionally, sprinkle crushed peanuts on top. Serve chilled.
