Thai Noodle Salad

Here is another Thai noodle dish (also see Tofu Stir Fry and Pad Thai). I seem to be on a Thai kick (also see Thai Green Curry and Stuffed Eggplant). I guess there worse things you be on a kick with.

This recipe was sent to me by my mother in law Pasha. It sounded so good I had to give it a try. It turned out great (nice it light).

10 oz rice noodles
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup water
1/8 cup rice wine vinegar
juice of 3 limes
1/2 tbsp chili sauce
2 tbsp crushed garlic
2 tbsp sugar
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1 cucumber (sliced)
1 head red leaf lettuce
1/2 cup chopped peanuts


Cook noodles as directed. In a small bowl mix fish sauce, water, lime juice, vinegar, chili sauce, garlic and sugar. In another bowl mix carrots cilantro and cucumber.

Once the noodles are done mix them in with the veggies and sauce.

In a large serving dish place the lettuce. Top with noodle mix and peanuts.
