I love noodles, and my new fave thing to use are rice noodles. Not only are they gluten free and better for you than regular noodles, they are also really easy to prepare. My son just moved away to University and these are just some of the easy recipes he can prepare for himself and his roomies. This recipe for Thai style Crab Noodle salad uses imitation crab, the long strands in this prepared product come apart easily and look great in the salad. Now let me warn you this may be the hardest part of preparing this dish as it does take some time, I usually will prop myself in front of the TV to complete this task or better still, I pay my younger son to do this for me ๐Ÿ™‚
Letโ€™s prepare the noodles by immersing them in hot water for x mins. Iโ€™m making two more recipes today using these noodles a Chinese style Noodle Salad and Kani a Japanese Salad. You will find the links to these recipes at the end of the video. After the noodles are soaked, drain them and run them under cold water. When fill drained, add them to a bowl and leave to cool. I like to add 1 tsp of chilli oil just to make sure they donโ€™t stick together.
Prepare the dressing by combining 100 ml of Lime juice with 100 ml of Fish sauce. Add 1 tsp of honey together with 1 tsp of chilli paste for hea. Also add 1 tsp of Chilli oil and mix. Add 1/4 cup each of chopped coriander and thai basil leaves to the bowl, 1 cup of sliced green Peppers and top with the dressing. Stir well to coat and enjoy the flavours โ€“sweet, salty, sour and spicy all in one bite. I love to eat this salad as a meal and take leftovers for lunch, itโ€™s the perfect cold salad and beats lining up at the microwave at work. Donโ€™t go away just yet, check out my other noodle salads right here, a Chinese style noodle salad and Kani a Japanese Crab salad.
