• 1/2 lime, juice squeezed

• 1/2 large red chilli, finely sliced

Method:

1. Cook soba noodles according to package instructions (only about 3 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients and adjust to your preference, it should be sweet, sour, spicy and zingy!

3. In a large salad bowl, combine the soba noodles, cucumbers, capsicum, mango, coriander and peanuts. Drizzle over the dressing and toss to combine.

If you want to keep this for a few days in the fridge, hold off on adding the dressing and only add your dressing to individual bowls right before serving.
