1 lb dried linguine
1/2 C peanut butter (I used the chunky kind, but use whatever you have)
2 Tbs soy sauce
1 Tbs lime juice
2 Tbs soy sauce
1 Tbs lime juice
1 Tbs fresh ginger, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
a pinch of sugar
1/2 C water
1-2 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced into long strips (I just used my peeler to make the long, thin strips)
1/4 C thinly sliced red onion
1 C sugar snap peas
1/4 C fresh cilantro, chopped
Cook pasta in large pot of boiling water according to package directions. While the pasta is cooking, you'll make the sauce.
Using a blender or food processor, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, ginger, garlic, sugar and water until smooth.
Next, heat your olive oil in a large pan, and then sautee your veggies... the carrots, onion and snap peas.
Drain the pasta, then toss with the veggies and sauce. Top with fresh cilantro.
I think this sauce and veggie mixture would be just as tasty served over rice instead of noodles! You'll love it!
I'd love to try pad Thai at home, just haven't been brave enough. This looks easy enough that I might even endeavor it!
ReplyDeleteI like Pad Thai but never make it. Did it make your place smell? I'm going to have to try it with spaghetti squash noodles! :)
