PEAR CARROT SLAW WITH GINGER MINT DRESSING

Pear Carrot Slaw With Ginger Mint Dressing image

Another favourite gingery recipe from "Red, Hot and Green". The book describes this as invigorating, refreshing and lusty in flavour! Low calorie and fat but still satisfying. Could be fat free by eliminating the oil and peanuts. My family is crazy about this taste!
