Boil and soak glass noodles by bringing 300ml water to a boil in a frying pan, adding glass noodles and cooking for 3-5 minutes until soft. Drain and rinse under cold water.

Cook the protein by adding a small amount of water to a pot, simmering, and mixing proteins with fish sauce for about 5-7 minutes until cooked through.

Prepare the dressing by blending fish sauce, lime juice, palm sugar, minced garlic, and chilies until smooth and aromatic.

Mix salad ingredients in a large mixing bowl with drained glass noodles, cooked protein, sliced red onion, and cilantro.

Toss with dressing, adjust seasoning, and serve immediately. Enjoy fresh at room temperature or chilled.
