Method
Break the broccoli into very small florets, removing the tough stems. Cut the red pepper into fine strips, rinse the beansprouts and roughly chop the baby corn. Toast the cashew nuts and sesame seeds together in a frying pan for a few minutes, until lightly coloured.
Steam the broccoli for 5 minutes, then drain under cold running water. Put it into a large bowl with the rest of the salad ingredients and mix together.
To make the dressing, peel the garlic and whizz in a blender with the rest of the dressing ingredients, then pour over the salad and toss gently. Only dress the amount you are going to eat at any one time, as once dressed it doesn't keep very well.
