We’ve got all the elements in this salad – shallots, ginger and chilli pickled in lime juice for a salty, spicy, sour flavour, fresh mint leaves and cucumber, sweet mango, crunchy fried shallots, toasty sesame seeds and fluffy pearl barley to soak up all that deliciousness! I think this salad holds its own as a meal, but of course you can serve it as a side with other Asian fare. Great in lunches on the go, as it’s best served at room temperature.
