Hunan Vegetable Salad

  2.3 – 3 reviews  • Asian Salad
This salad is filled with many chunky vegetables and can be served hot or refrigerated. In fact, the flavor improves after overnight or day of cold storage. This is a good side dish that often accompanies main dishes in typical Asian meals. A main dish can be as simple as fried rice, fried noodle, dumpling, various types of plain or stuffed breads, or simply plain rice.

I have to agree with haakon2pl. Without a full recipe, this meal falls flat. Your average home cook will not know what proportions to add the mising ingredients without a bit of background in Asian cuisine.

That being said, I still was not impressed with this recipe…

You should not give one star if you haven’t even tried the recipe!! That basically throws the ratings off. If the next 3 people who try it say it’s the best thing they ever ate and give 5 starst, it still will only get 3 stars average!

Not cool…

I didn’t try it either, but I figure my ignorant 5 stars will help balance your ignorant 1 star!

this recipe is not complete. In the directions it calls for shaoxing wine and sugar. There is no such thing in the ingredients. Please correct so I may know how to make this recipe.
