Ingredients
7 oz pasta of your choice (e.g. fettuccine or gluten-free rice noodles)
2 tbsp sweet chili sauce (optional)
1-2 tbsp sesame oil
1 small piece of ginger (minced)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
2 scallions (chopped (separate green parts from white parts))
1 red bell pepper (sliced or chopped)
5,3 oz mushrooms (sliced)
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari sauce, if gluten-free)
1 tsp agave syrup (or another sweetener to taste)
1 tsp chili flakes (or Sriracha to taste)
salt and pepper (to taste)
3-4 tbsp sesame seeds
fresh limes
Instructions
*See step-by-step photos above.
Cook the noodles according to the packing instructions.
In the meantime, heat the oil in a skillet or wok. Add the ginger, garlic and white part of the chopped scallions (reserve the green part for garnish) and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then add the mushrooms and bell pepper and cook for further 5 minutes until tender.
Once the noodles are done cooking, drain the cooking water and toss them with a little sweet & sour sauce. (This adds more flavor to the noodles and also prevents them from sticking but that's just optional). Then, add them to the vegetables, and sauté for a while until slightly crisp. Pour in the soy sauce and coconut milk. Season with salt, pepper, and chili and agave syrup to taste. Toss and stir-fry until everything is well combined and hot.
Serve your Asian Chili Garlic noodles in bowls with lime wedges on the side and sprinkle with green scallions and sesame as desired.
Enjoy!
