Almond Noodles with Cucumber Carrot Ribbons
Sautéed seitan and buckwheat noodles tossed in a creamy almond-ginger sauce, served with crisp cucumber and carrot ribbons for a refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz seitan strips
0.5 oz dry soba noodles
1 tbsp creamy almond butter
1 tbsp tamari
1 tsp lime juice
1 tsp fresh ginger
1 clove garlic
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup carrots
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 tsp sriracha
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the dry soba noodles for 4-5 minutes until tender, then drain and rinse with cold water.
Use a vegetable peeler to shave the cucumber and carrots into long, thin ribbons, stopping when you reach the seeds of the cucumber.
In a small bowl, whisk together the creamy almond butter, tamari, lime juice, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, and sriracha until the sauce is smooth.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the seitan strips for 5-6 minutes until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the seitan, pour in the almond sauce, and toss for 1 minute to warm through and coat everything evenly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in the cucumber and carrot ribbons before serving to maintain their crisp texture.
