Crunchy pea pods, green onions and oriental-style noodles are tossed in a ginger-spiked soy sauce to create this cold noodle dish. The small amount of sesame oil adds rich flavor without a lot of fat.

Ingredients

  • 455g Chinese noodles, or angel hair pasta, uncooked
  • 30mL sesame oil
  • 120mL soy sauce, low sodium
  • 60mL rice wine vinegar
  • 25g sugar
  • 5g cilantro, chopped optional
  • 7g ginger root, grated
  • 5mL hot chili oil
  • 180g green onions, sliced diagonally
  • 72g pea pods, fresh

Directions

  • In a large pot, heat water to a boil. Cook pasta in rapidly boiling water until done. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  • In a large bowl, mix together sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sugar, cilantro, ginger root and hot chili oil. Add noodles and toss gently to separate the noodles and distribute the sauce. Add the green onions and toss. Let stand, tossing occasionally until all the sauce is absorbed into noodles. Add pea pods, stir and chill.
