Ingredients:

1/2 cup salad oil or 1/2 cup olive oil

1/4 cup cider vinegar

1/4 cup honey

1 tablespoon soya sauce

1/2 teaspoon mustard powder

1 garlic clove

salt

1/2 teaspoon of your favourite curry powder

1/4 teaspoon sambal oelek (optional)

2 (3 ounce) packages ramen noodles, your favourite flavour, broken into small pieces

1 (1 lb) bag frozen green beans, the long skinny kind, cooked till crisp-tender, and cooled

1 red pepper, cut into long, thin strips

1 cup grated carrots or 1 cup matchstick julienne carrot

3 green onions, chopped (both white and tender green part)

3 cooked chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces (pre-cooked rotisserie chicken is great and easy)

1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts

Directions:

1. Zap all the dressing ingredients, including the flavour packet from the ramen noodles, together in a mini-processor/blender.
2. Put all salad ingredients into a big bowl and toss with enough dressing to suit your taste. Taste and adjust seasoning (adding more salt), if necessary. Chill for an hour before serving, or serve at room temperature.
3. Plate chicken salad on four dinner plates and sprinkle with dry-roasted peanuts.
