WATERCRESS AND WATER CHESTNUT SALAD
To serve 4
2 bunches watercress
8 peeled fresh water chestnuts or drained canned water chestnuts
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame-seed oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar

   PREPARE AHEAD:

   1. With a small knife, trim and discard the tough ends of the watercress stems. Wash the watercress under cold running water, drop it into a pot of boiling water, then drain and pat the leaves dry with paper towels. With a cleaver or large knife, chop the watercress fine.

   2. Wash the water chestnuts, drain and cut them into 1/8-inch slices. Then chop them fine.

   TO ASSEMBLE:

   Combine in a large bowl the soy sauce, sesame-seed oil, salt and sugar, and mix thoroughly. Add the watercress and water chestnuts and toss them well with a large spoon so that they are well coated with the mixture. Chill and serve.
