Mango Shrimp Salad
- For dipping sauce:
- 3 tablespoons Asian fish sauce such as Thai nam pal or Vietnamese nuoc mam
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 1/2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
- For salad:
- 12 large shirmp in shell (21 to 25 per pound), peeled
- 1 seedless cucumber (1 lb) peeled, cored, and cut inot 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks
- 1 pound frozen mango
- For Noodles:
- 3 ounces vermicelli rice-stick noodles
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Make sauce:
- Stir together all sauce ingredients in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved.
- Make rolls:
- Add shrimp to a 4- to 5-quart pot of boiling salted water then reduce heat and poach shrimp, onions,frozen mango, cucumber, and a tablespoon of the dipping sauce at a bare simmer uncovered, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. (Alternative option: saute in sauce pan instead of poaching.) Transfer shrimp with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking, then return shrimp cooking water to a boil.
- Make noodles:
- Add noodles to boiling water and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold running water and drain well. Stir together vinegar, sugar, and salt in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved, then add noodles and toss to coat.
- Serve with remaining dipping sauce.
