Instructions
  1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to boil. Place vermicelli in the water, stir well, then put the lid on and turn off the heat. Set a timer for 7 minutes.
  2. Mix all coconut dressing ingredients together in a small bowl, and set aside.
  3. In a separate, large bowl, add the ribbons of carrot and cucumber, and chopped lettuce. By this point the vermicelli should be cooked; drain it, then add it to the bowl with the other salad ingredients, along with the coriander. Season to taste, and toss together. Then drizzle over the coconut dressing.
  4. Heat some oil on medium heat in a fry pan. Pat the fish dry, remove any scales or bones, then season with salt. Cook for 2 minutes on each side, until it's done.
  5. To serve, place the noodle salad in a bowl, and top it with the fish. Dig in!
