SPICY YUMMY RICE NOODLES

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

7 ounces flat rice noodles
3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 red onion, peeled, halved and thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced
12 ounces broccoli, broken into small florets and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons tamari (for gluten free) or soy sauce
2 tablespoons chili jam or sweet chili sauce
1/2 cup coconut milk
3 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
1 1/4 cups hot vegetable stock (store-bought or 1/2 tablespoon vegetable bouillon mixed with 1 1/4 cups boiling water)
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced into long ribbons using a vegetable peeler
Handful toasted peanuts, roughly chopped, to garnish (see Cook's Note)
Handful of cilantro leaves, to garnish

Steps:

  • Place the rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave them to soak according to the packet instructions, but a couple of minutes before the time is up check and drain them, as you want them slightly under cooked and still have a bite as they will finish cooking in the sauce.
  • To cook the vegetables, heat 2 tablespoons of the sesame oil in a wok (or use a large saute pan with deep sides or big saucepan). Add the onion and cook for a couple of minutes until just starting to soften then add the red bell pepper and broccoli. Stir well and leave to cook for about 3 minutes on a medium to high heat.
  • Meanwhile put the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil, the tamari, chili jam, coconut milk, peanut butter and vegetable stock into a measuring cup and stir together until totally combined - the hot stock helps to soften the peanut butter, so it mixes together more easily.
  • Pour the sauce into the wok with the vegetables and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the carrot ribbons and toss to combine. Be careful not to overcook the vegetables - they should be just cooked.
  • Drain the noodles in a colander, shake well to get rid of any excess water and add to the wok with the vegetables and sauce. Gently mix everything together making sure the noodles are well coated in the sauce.
  • Divide between bowls or tip onto a large serving platter and garnish with toasted, chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro leaves.

PEANUT NOODLES WITH SHRIMP



Peanut Noodles With Shrimp image

Don't order takeout. You can make these super easy Thai-inspired peanut noodles at home for a fraction of the cost. First, make a quick peanut sauce of peanut butter (chunky or smooth, your call), lime juice, lime zest, sugar, fish sauce and water. Toss rice noodles into boiling water and remove from heat to soften. Meanwhile, sauté the shrimp with a heady combination of scallions, carrots, garlic and chile (for a meatless version, leave out the shrimp or substitute tofu). When the noodles are soft, but not mushy, drain and toss with the shrimp, vegetables and peanut sauce. Garnish with herbs and lime wedges. Now go directly to your junk drawer and throw away all of your takeout menus.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Salt
3 limes
1/3 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons nam pla (fish sauce)
12 to 16 ounces rice noodles (not vermicelli)
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled
1 bunch scallions, sliced
2 grated carrots (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 minced fresh hot chile, like jalapeño or Thai, or more to taste
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, mint or Thai basil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Cut two limes into wedges and set aside. Grate zest from remaining lime into a large bowl and squeeze in its juice. Add peanut butter, sugar, nam pla and enough water to make a smooth sauce (start with 1/2 cup and add more as needed).
  • When water comes to a boil, put noodles in pot; remove from heat.
  • Put oil in a large skillet over high heat. A minute later, add shrimp and season with salt. Cook and stir until shrimp just begins to turn pink. Add scallions, carrots, garlic and chile and keep cooking and stirring until vegetables soften a bit and shrimp cooks through, just a minute or two more. Remove from heat.
  • Noodles should be soft but not mushy; if they are not soft enough, let them sit a few more minutes. Drain noodles and toss them in a bowl along with shrimp mixture and peanut sauce. Sprinkle with lots of pepper and toss well; taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot or at room temperature, garnished with herbs and lime wedges.

SPICY PEANUT NOODLES



Spicy Peanut Noodles image

Whip up this quick, versatile peanut sauce and pair it with your favorite noodles (rice noodles, yakisoba, egg noodles, spaghetti--whatever you have on hand) for a satisfying bowl that is ready in just 15 minutes. Inspired by Chinese sesame noodles, this recipe relies on peanut butter instead of Chinese sesame paste (zhī ma jiàng) for a nutty, savory flavor, though feel free to sub in sesame paste (or use a combination of both) if you have it at home. The dish is easy to adapt: Add more chili crisp or ginger for a bolder version, a little more sugar for a sweeter sauce or a bit of water to thin it out.

SPICY THAI COCONUT SHRIMP WITH RICE NOODLES



Spicy Thai Coconut Shrimp With Rice Noodles image

Make and share this Spicy Thai Coconut Shrimp With Rice Noodles recipe from Food.com.

Provided by jaetea

Categories     Thai

Time 1h5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/4 cup oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
2 tablespoons coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Thai peppers or 1/4 teaspoon sriracha sauce
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 (14 ounce) can tomatoes, petit cut
2 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut milk (from 2 15oz cans)
1/2 cup water or 1/2 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and cleaned
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 lemon zest
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
8 lime wedges

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large skillet or Wok on med-hi heat.
  • Add onions and stir, cook for 3 minutes.
  • Add garlic and ginger, cook 2 minutes.
  • Add next 5 spices, cook 1 minute.
  • Add tomatoes, cook 1 minute.
  • Add coconut milk, water, and salt, and bring to a simmer until thickened 5-10 minutes.
  • Add shrimp, simmer, stirring for 3-5 minutes.
  • Stir in cilantro, lemon juice and zest.
  • Serve over rice noodles with lime wedges.
  • Rice Noodle Cooking Directions:.
  • Place all your rice noodles in a deep mixing bowl, trying to snap as few of them as possible as you remove them from the package (always a challenge for us). Bring a good amount of water to boil. Pour the boiling water over the rice noodles until they are completely submerged.
  • Every minute or two, give the noodles a stir to loosen them up. When they are completely limp, give them a taste to see if they're cooked through. The thread-like vermicelli noodles used in spring rolls will cook through in just a few minutes. The flat rice noodles might take upwards of ten minutes depending on thickness. Pay attention and test the noodles frequently because they'll become mushy if they overcook.
  • Once the noodles are tender, drain them and run them under cool water to stop the cooking. Toss them with a bit of sesame oil to keep the noodles from sticking to each other if you're not going to use them right away.
  • Since these noodles will be used in the above dish, you definitely want to under-cook them a bit. They will absorb more moisture and cook the rest of the way through once in the stir fry. If your noodles are perfectly cooked to start, they will turn to mush in the stir fry.
  • Note: This whole recipe can be cut in half including the rice noodles.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or wok to cook the shrimp and vegetables. This will ensure that everything cooks evenly and quickly.
  • Add the peanut sauce last, once the shrimp and vegetables are cooked. This will prevent the sauce from burning and will help to preserve its flavor.

  • If you like your food extra spicy, add an extra ½ teaspoon of chili sauce to the peanut sauce.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to this dish, such as broccoli, carrots, or bell peppers.
  • This dish can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Simply reheat it in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
