Report
In this vegetarian paleo pad thai, silky ribbons of cabbage and carrot noodles are topped with a spicy-nutty sauce and a messy crown of sprouts and cashews.

Ingredients
- ½ head of Green cabbage
- 1 onion
- 2 carrots
- 2 cups of bean sprouts
- 1 cup of daikon sprouts optional
- eggs one per person (optional)
- 1 package of extra firm tofu optional
- cashews chopped, for serving
- 2 limes for serving
- 2 TBs coconut oil
- Sauce:
- 5 tablespoons tamari sauce - use 2 TBs white vinegar and 3 TBs water instead if strict paleo
- 3 tablespoons of your favourite hot sauce
- 3 tablespoons almond butter
- 2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- Juice of ½ a lemon
Instructions
- If using tofu, pan-fry tofu with a bit of salt and pepper in a pan for 10 minutes. Give your pan a stir every two minutes, until the tofu gets a golden crust on all sides.
- Finely shred cabbage with a sharp knife. Grate carrots into matchsticks on a mandoline, or into ribbons with a vegetable peeler.
- Preheat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil, onions, cabbage and carrots, and cook for about 7 – 10 minutes until crisp, stirring occasionally.
- While cabbage is cooking, mix all ingredients for the sauce together in a separate bowl.
- Pour sauce over cabbage and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- If using egg, make a scrambled egg for each person eating.
- Plate and garnish with sprouts, cashew, tofu and scrambled egg (if using), and slices of lime. Serve immediately. Keep the leftover vegetarian paleo pad thai mixture separate from the sprouts, cashew, tofu and scrambled eggs until serving time. It will keep in the fridge for a few days.
