Black-eyed Bean and Noodle Salad in Mint Sambal

Mint Sambal

To make the mint sambal, place the mint, onion, garlic, lemon juice, Thai chilli sauce and salt in a bowl of a food processor and blend until it forms a paste. Transfer to a bowl, add the black-eyed beans and toss to coat.
Using a vegetable peeler, cut the cucumber into thin ribbons. Pour boiling water over the noodles and leave for 5 minutes, or until softened. Drain, then separate by pulling apart.
To serve, divide the noodles and cucumber strips among four bowls and top with the black-eyed beans. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
