Инструкции

  1. Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk till smooth. Combine the salad ingredients in a large bowl, cover, and chill till ready to serve.
  2. Set a wok in a ring stand and add in oil to a depth of about 2 inches. Heat the oil to 360 degrees and adjust the heat to medium-high. Fry the wonton strips till golden, about 15 seconds. Remove them with a skimmer and drain on paper towels.
  3. Place a wide frying pan over medium heat till warm. Add in the walnut oil, swirling to coat the surface. Add in the sugar, stir till it dissolves, add in the walnuts, and stir till the nuts are coated with caramelized sugar. Immediately transfer the walnuts to a foil-covered plate and separate them with two forks.
  4. Just before serving, pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat proportionately. Serve the salad in a wide shallow bowl, surrounded with wonton strips. Scatter the glazed walnuts over the top.
  5. This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
  6. Comments: There are as many variations of Chinese chicken salad as there are moves in a game of mah jong. Place your money on this one; it's a sure winner. The glazed walnuts are traditionally deep-fried, but you can make them with less fuss in just a tiny bit of oil. To be on the safe side, double the amount of walnuts; you may eat half of them for snacks by the time you serve the salad.
