Bangkok Noodle Salad Recipes

ASIAN NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the noodles until al dente, according to package directions. Drain and rinse briefly with cool water to remove the excess starch and stop the cooking, then transfer to a large serving bowl. Add the broccoli cole slaw and carrots.
• While the pasta cooks, whisk together the olive oil, rice vinegar, honey, peanut butter, soy sauce, Sriarcha, ginger, and garlic. Pour over the noodle mixture and toss to combine. Add the peanuts and cilantro and toss once more. Serve chilled or at room temperature with additional Sriracha sauce as desired.

VERMICELLI NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes for the flavours to infuse.
• Prepare vermicelli noodles per packet directions (usually soak in warm or boiling water 2 minutes). Drain well then set aside for 10 minutes to drain off exces water. Turn out onto tea towel if necessary to dry more (watery noodles = watery flavour).
• Combine vermicelli noodles with remaining salad ingredients.
• Just prior to serving, toss through dressing. Garnish with Fried Asian Shallots if you wish.
