Sometimes on my day's off, I like to make a lunch that's a little more involved but still healthy and easy. It's simple, super affordable and looks really impressive when guests drop around to visit!

Ingredients

• Half a store bought BBQ chicken, shredded
• 200g packet of dried egg noodles
• 1 Lebanese cucumber (seeds removed and cut into bite sized cubes)
• 200g cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup fresh mint leaves
• 1 cup fresh coriander leaves
• 1 stalk lemongrass, finely chopped (white part only)
• 2 small red chillies, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup fish sauce
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped

Method:

Place noodles in large, heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water. Stand for 4 minutes or until just tender. Drain noodles and return to large bowl.

Add cucumber, cherry tomatoes, chicken, mint and coriander to noodles.

Using a fork, whisk lemongrass, chilli, fish sauce, lime juice and brown sugar together in a jug. Pour over noodle mixture and gently toss to combine. Top with nuts to serve.

I like to eat it straight away but it can be refrigerated for a late lunch.
