Asian Noodle Salad
8 ounces udon noodles
2 cups napa cabbage, shredded
1 cup carrots, shredded
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
3 scallions, chopped
2 tbsp basil leaves, chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint, chopped
Spicy Peanut Sauce
1/2 tbsp peanut butter
3 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2-3 tsp green curry paste or chili paste
2 garlic cloves, minced
Cook the noodles in boiling water according to package directions. Meanwhile chop up all the vegetables and herbs and place in large bowl. Mix together ingredients for peanut sauce and set aside.
When noodles are done, drain and rinse under cool water to prevent sticking. Once completely cool, toss in bowl with vegetables and mix until thoroughly combined.
When ready to serve add peanut sauce and toss to coat.
This looks great! Can't wait to try it out!

ReplyDeleteI finally made this tonight! It was yummy and a nice change from all the beans we've been preparing lately. I also added a pinch of sugar to the peanut sauce and enjoyed that.
