Peanut Rice Noodles with Pork and Collard Greens image

Putting sugar in your noodles might seem odd, but it balances the salt, heat, fat, and tanginess going on here. It's like adding a pinch of sugar to a tomato sauce-trust us on this one.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
12 oz. regular-width rice stick noodles
1/4 cup smooth natural peanut butter
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 Tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 lb. ground pork
1 (1 1/2") piece ginger, peeled, cut into matchsticks
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 bunch collard greens, ribs and stems removed, leaves thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Remove from heat; add noodles. Let sit, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 4 minutes (time may vary by brand). Drain and rinse under cold running water.
  • Meanwhile, whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, red pepper flakes, and 1 cup water in a medium bowl. (Sauce will look a little broken and lumpy.)
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Cook pork, breaking up with 2 forks, until nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add ginger and garlic; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add collard greens and cook, stirring occasionally, just until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add sauce and noodles and bring to a simmer; cook, tossing occasionally, until sauce is reduced by half and coats noodles, about 3 minutes. Season with salt.

I wasn't a fan of this dish. The peanut sauce was too thick and the pork was dry. The collard greens were also a bit too bitter for my taste. Overall, this was not a dish that I would make again.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The peanut sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the pork and collard greens were cooked perfectly. Next time, I will use less chili paste.
