INSTRUCTIONS
Store the shrimp-pasta mixture and vinaigrette separately in the refrigerator; toss just before serving. Fish sauce is a salty condiment that accounts for the high sodium content of this salad. It comes bottled and is sometimes labeled nam pla in Asian markets or your supermarket's ethnic-food section. Cook pasta in boiling water 9-1/2 minutes. Add carrot; cook an additional 30 seconds. Drain, and cool. Combine pasta mixture, shrimp, lettuce, cilantro leaves, and peanuts in a large bowl; toss well. Combine lime juice and remaining ingredients in a jar. Cover tightly, and shake vigorously. Pour over pasta mixture, tossing gently to coat. Yield: 2 servings (serving size: 2 cups).
