Instructions
- Bring a large pan of water to a boil and add the salt and baking soda (see note 5)
- Add in the pasta and set the timer for 2 minutes less than the packet suggests.
- Whilst the pasta is boiling, pour the sesame oil into a large skillet and add in the red pepper flakes.
- Heat the oil over medium heat until hot.
- Strain off the red pepper flakes, reserving the oil and then return the oil to the skillet.
- Add the soy sauce, honey and fish sauce to the oil and simmer gently.
- Toss the drained pasta through the sauce, turning it for 1-2 minutes until well coated and fully cooked.
- Toss through the bag of chopped slaw
- Serve garnished with peanuts, sesame seeds, lime wedges, and cilantro.
- Served hot or as a cold salad.
Notes
- You can use any long pasta for this recipe, spaghetti, fettuccine or angel hair will all work.
- ½ tablespoon of red pepper flakes gives this a kick, but not too spicy. Add an extra ½ tablespoon if you prefer really spicy noodles.
- Fish sauce is optional (leave out for vegetarians) you can find it in the Asian aisle of the grocery store. It smells funky but adds so much to the dish.
- You can buy any chopped slaw mixture your family enjoys, or shred your own. There are extra options in the main blog post.
- The baking soda can make the water boil up, so use a large pan and sprinkle the baking soda in slowly.
