Instructions

Cook Rice vermicelli , soaked in water for about 5 mins in a microwave compatible bowl with a lid on.
I used 900w microwave on full power an it took me 5 mins to cook the vermicelli .let them soak in hot water for additional 5-10 mins more if not cooked fully.
let vermicelli cool till you can handle it comfortably.I prefer to run it through tap water to prevent over cooking.
Take a wide bowl and toss garden veggies with vermicelli + 1-2 tbsp or more dressing (amount as per your preference) and mix well.
Serve in plates and topped it with lots of roasted Peanuts :)) & fresh mint leaves.Serve with a lemon wedge & enjoy !!
