- 1 teaspoon white peppercorns, ground
- 100 g mixed salad greens

directions
- To make the dressing, in a mortar, pound the red chillies and garlic to a paste.
- Transfer to a bowl and add the red onion, fish sauce, lime juice and sugar to taste. Stir well to mix.
- Adjust the flavours so that the sauce is equally salty and sour with a light touch of sweetness.
- Let the sauce sit for at least 15 minutes before using to allow the flavours to amalgamate.
- Rub lamb with oyster sauce and white peppercorns. Cook on a hot, lightly oiled barbecue to medium rare or about 5-7 minutes, then rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice the lamb thinly and place in a large mixing bowl with the salad greens, onion, capsicum, cucumber, mint and noodles.
- Toss gently with the dressing and pile onto a serving plate.
- Sprinkle with crushed peanuts and crispy shallots.
