Ingredients
  

  • 300 g rice noodles or any Asian noodles
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups finely shredded red cabbage
  • 1 handful fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • Pot for boiling noodles
  • Sharp knife or mandoline for slicing veggies
  • Small mixing bowl for the sauce

  • Grater or microplane for mincing garlic and ginger

Method
 

  1. Boil your noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and rinse under cold water.
  2. While the noodles cool, chop your veggies into thin strips and arrange them in a large bowl.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, garlic, ginger, and chili flakes. Add warm water until the sauce reaches a pourable consistency.

Notes

Feel free to swap out veggies based on what you have on hand; zucchini, bamboo shoots, or green beans work beautifully. For a protein boost, add grilled tofu, edamame, or chickpeas. Toast your sesame seeds before garnishing for extra flavor. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and taste even better the next day! Enjoy them cold or reheat with a splash of water to loosen the sauce!
