Thai-Style Sour Salad with Peaches
- Prep Time: 20 mins
- Cook Time: 10 mins
- Total Time: 30 mins
- Yield: 2
Ingredients
- 2 cups green beans, trimmed and cut to 1 inch lengths
- 8 oz block tofu, drained and diced
- 1 TBS canola oil
- ¼ tsp each: kosher salt and crushed red pepper flake
- 1 medium peach, diced
- 1 small tomato, diced
- ¼ cup coarsely minced cilantro
- 1/3 cup peanuts
Dressing
- 1 large lime, juiced (about 2-3 TBS)
- 2 TBS olive oil
- 1 ½ TBS brown sugar
- 1 TBS fish sauce
- 1/8 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- Blanch the green beans in boiling salted water for 4 minutes. Drain well and place back in the pot.
- Whisk together the dressing ingredients. Pour 1-2 TBS of the dressing over the green beans, tossing to coat. Let this rest while you prep the rest of the salad.
- In a skillet, toss the tofu in canola oil and season with ¼ tsp salt and red pepper flake. Cook until crispy and golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and toss the tofu with 1-2 TBS dressing, just enough to let the tofu absorb it all.
- On two plates, layer the marinated green beans, tofu, peach, tomato, cilantro and peanuts. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
