At lunchtime today I was taking out my ingredients for a stir fry that I was intending to make tonight when creativity struck and I came up with this wonderful salad. It all began with my carrot curler that just arrived in the mail today moments earlier. I'm beginning to appreciate how really good cooking is also a really good work of art. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1/2 lb chicken (boneless, skinless)

1 teaspoon oyster sauce

1 teaspoon olive oil

2 garlic cloves (shaved or thinly sliced)

1/2 cup cashews (chopped and ground)

1/4 cup celery leaves

2 carrots (shaved with a carrot curler)

4 ounces baby corn (drained)

4 ounces water chestnuts (shaved or sliced very thin)

1/8 teaspoon chives

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/8 teaspoon curry

1/8 teaspoon coriander seed

1/2 teaspoon chinese five spice powder

Directions:

1. Tenderize and marinade chicken overnight in the oyster sauce. Cut chicken into 1/2 inch bite-size pieces. Saute chicken with all spices and garlic in olive oil until done. Meanwhile, Shave carrots with a carrot curler and form into rose shapes. Arrange carrots on a salad plate.Shave water chestnuts and cashews on top. Place Celery leaves around for garnish and eating. Equally distribute chicken on plates. Add your favorite dressing if desired. Enjoy!
