This raw vegetable and tofu dish delivers an energy boost at lunchtime.

Ingredients

10g wakame seaweed
100g tofu cut into chunks
1 carrot, grated
2 zucchini, grated
2 handfuls alfalfa
1 cup shredded cabbage
2 shiitake mushrooms

Dressing

1 tablespoon tamari
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tablespoons mirin

Method

Soak wakame seaweed in warm water for a few minutes until hydrated, then drain the water. I like to saute the tofu until crispy in a little olive oil before serving. Arrange all the ingredients, including the seaweed, into serving bowls. Combine dressing and pour over the salad just before eating.
