Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes minutes
Servings: 4 people
- 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
- 8 asparagus spears, angle-cut into 2 inch pieces
- 2 Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 packages of Shirataki noodles (you can substitute with 9 oz of regular pasta)
- 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
- 2 Peanut Sauce
- 2/3 cup chopped scallions
- 3 cups shredded purple cabbage
- 3/4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
- 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli and 2 teaspoons of salt. Cook uncovered about 4 minutes, until crisp-tender. Transfer the broccoli with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice water.
Bring the pot of water back to a boil and add the asparagus. Cook 3 minutes until crisp-tender. Add to the bowl of ice water. When the vegetables are cool, drain them and pat dry.
Bring a new pot of water to a boil and follow the cooking instructions on your noodle package. Cook just until al dente. Drain well and toss in a bowl with the sesame oil.
Add the peanut dressing, broccoli, and asparagus to the bowl with the noodles. Toss well. This dish will keep well at room temperature for 1 hour.
Spread the cabbage out on a serving platter and top with the noodles.
Garnish with the scallions, peanuts, and cilantro.
