Glass noodle salad (cellophane / bean thread noodles)
Recipe video above. This Asian-style salad combines glass noodles with fresh herbs, vegetables and shredded chicken with a hoisin dressing that's slightly creamy so it clings nicely to the slippery noodles. The lime cashew crumble really makes this, so don't skip it!Terrific no-cook meal for

Instructions
- Glass noodles: Place dry noodles in a bowl and cover with freshly boiled water. Leave for 3 to 4 minutes or until transparent and softened. Drain using a colander, rinse under tap water (for rapid cool and reduce stickiness) then detangle using your fingers. Drain thoroughly before use. Set aside to fully cool.
- Lime cashew crumble: Place ingredients in a bowl and toss. (No marinating time needed)
- Dressing: Place ingredients in a jar and shake until well combined.
- Salad: Place glass noodle salad ingredients in a large bowl. Pour over dressing, toss well. Add half the cashews, toss again.
- Serve: Transfer to a large salad bowl or individual bowls. Sprinkle with remaining lime cashew crumble and serve!
