SPICY SESAME SHRIMP & NOODLE SALAD



Spicy Sesame Shrimp & Noodle Salad image

One of our favorite Korean dishes has always been a Korean Cold Sesame Noodles that my Mom made for us. It was supposed to be served at room temperature, but I like it warm. The shrimp-noodle salad recipe was a result of memories of my Mom's Korean background, and my love of fresh vegetables, packed full of flavor. The gochujang (hot chili paste) is a more savory kind of heat, that really blends beautifully with sesame, soy sauce and garlic. -Karen Bowlden, Boise, Idaho

SPICY SHRIMP MASALA



Spicy Shrimp Masala image

Black pepper, garam masala, Thai green chiles and Kashmiri red chile powder make this shrimp masala a multi-layered delight of spices - fiery and smoldering simultaneously - while lemon juice and cilantro add brightness and bring some relief. In coastal cities of South Asia like Karachi and states like Goa, this preparation is typical and perfectly suited for crunchy, sweet shrimp. That such complexity comes together in 30 minutes feels like a small miracle.

SESAME NOODLE SALAD

This amazing salad recipe was given to me by a friend who used to know someone at the now closed Larry's Markets in the Seattle area. I've added to the recipe a little -- so it's not exactly the same... but better! I take this to every picnic and everyone loves it! May also add diced chicken for a variation.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 6.75-ounce package rice stick noodles (maifun)
4 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons fish sauce (such as nam pla or nuoc nam)
4 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
1 pound peeled deveined cooked medium shrimp
1 cup thinly sliced Japanese cucumbers or Persian cucumbers
1 8-ounce package sugar snap peas, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup (loosely packed) fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup (loosely packed) fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Divide noodles among bowls. Top with cucumber slices and all remaining ingredients. Spoon shrimp with dressing over, and drizzle with remaining dressing.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • To make the shrimp extra crispy, cook them in a single layer in a large skillet.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the shrimp, or they will steam instead of fry.
  • The sesame-ginger dressing is the key to this salad's flavor. Make sure to whisk it together thoroughly before adding it to the salad.
  • If you don't have rice noodles, you can use another type of noodle, such as soba noodles or udon noodles.
  • This salad is best served immediately after it is made. However, it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

This Spicy Sesame Shrimp Noodle Salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
