1tablespoonSambal Oelek or Sriracha/other hot sauce
sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Noodles
12oz(340 grams) long noodles of choice
1cupfrozen shelled edamame
1teaspoonoil (avocado or olive)
1not-quite-ripe mango, peeled and julienned (see note)
12oz(340 grams bag) slaw mix(see note)
¾cupleafy herbs, chopped (see note)
Instructions
In an upright blender, combine the peanut butter, water, garlic, ginger, Tamari, maple syrup, lime juice, rice vinegar, Sambal Oelek, salt, and pepper. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside.
Cook noodles according to package directions, adding the edamame in the last minute of cooking time. Drain the noodles and edamame in a colander, and then toss them with the oil to prevent clumping.
In a large bowl, combine the noodles and edamame, mango, slaw mix, and chopped herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the peanut sauce over everything and toss until the noodles and veg are evenly coated. Garnish with more chopped herbs if you like and serve immediately.
Any long noodle will work! I had Jovial’s gluten-free cappellini on hand when I took these photos, so that’s what I used. This recipe is easygoing :)
I used a Kent mango here. If you’re working with the smaller Ataulfo variety, I’d use 2.
I prefer a mix of basil and mint for my herbs in this recipe. Thai basil and cilantro are also nice!
Where I live you can buy classic slaw mix and broccoli slaw mix at most grocery stores. Both are a different combo of green/red cabbage, carrots, and broccoli stems. One (12 oz/340 gram) package is almost 4 cups of slaw total.
Mango slaw noodles are quick and simple to make thanks to bagged slaw mix from the grocery store. Spicy, sweet and nutty flavors combine in the borderline drinkable peanut sauce dressing.
