SALAD: Tear greens into bite sized pieces.
Toss all salad ingredients and arrange on a serving platter.
DRESSING: Dry roast the sesame seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat, stirring often until golden brown, about 2 to 4 minutes.
Set aside to cool.
Whisk together the garlic, pepper flakes, syrup, lime juice, tamari and water.
Pour dressing over the salad. Garnish with sesame seeds and peanuts and serve at room temperature.
