Let's Cook!

  1. Marinate the Quorn Pieces in the Thai paste for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat the oil in a small frying pan. Add the Quorn Pieces and cook for 5 minutes over a medium to high heat stirring constantly until golden in colour and set aside.
  3. Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 1 minute, then refresh in cold water. Place in a bowl with the cabbage, tomatoes, pepper and mango. Stir the Quorn Pieces and coriander, and then season. Cover and chill in a refrigerator.
  4. Mix together the dressing ingredients. Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss well. Serve on a bed of mixed salad leaves and garnish with coriander.

Fresh crusty bread is the ideal accompaniment.
