The story behind this recipe
If I had to describe Asian cuisine in two words, they would be: simple and delicious. That is exactly what I look for in the kitchen—cooking food that is wholesome and tastes good. Today I made a main course and a dessert, prepared and created on the fly. Another successful experiment that I want to share with you! :)
For the savory part, we need: Pea Noodles (or rice)—the cooking method is the same for both types of pasta. We also need a vegetable mix (carrots, green beans, mushrooms, peas), 1 garlic clove, soy sauce, curry, sesame seeds, about 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, salt, and hot chili pepper for those who like it spicy.
Heat the coconut oil, add the garlic, and brown it. Add the vegetables with a splash of water in which you've dissolved the half teaspoon of curry and a little salt, and let it reduce over medium heat.
Meanwhile, soak the noodles in a bowl of lukewarm water for about 5 minutes.
When the vegetable water has evaporated, add the sesame seeds, stir, and after 1 minute, add the drained noodles.
Stir a little, and finish with soy sauce to taste. Let it cook for about 2 more minutes, and it's ready.
Plate it and add hot chili pepper!
Bon appétit! 🍝
