I have been making this salad now for over 25 years and it’s always been popular. Use any vegetables you have on hand, such as blanched beans, carrots, celery, corn, spring onions or capsicum.

2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp curry powder
Method:
• Cook the pasta according to packet directions.
• Drain the pasta, stir in the oil and allow to cool.
• Add the vegetables and roasted peanuts.
• In a jug, whisk the dressing ingredients with a fork until well combined and pour over the salad.
