Directions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it, then add the noodles and cook according to package directions for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- Wash and dry all produce to get ready for cutting and slicing.
- In a medium bowl, grate or mince the ginger and transfer it there.
- Whisk together peanut butter, honey, water, tamari, rice vinegar, chili-garlic sauce, and sesame oil with the ginger until smooth; set the dressing aside.
- Trim and thinly slice the green onions, cut the bell pepper into julienne strips, and prepare the cucumber into planks that are ⅛ inch thick, then cut into ¼ inch sticks.
- Peel and julienne or finely grate the carrot; remove the outer leaves from the cabbage and thinly slice crosswise.
- Roughly chop the roasted cashews.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked noodles, cashews, and prepared vegetables, then pour over the dressing and toss to coat.
- Divide the noodles among plates and serve the bowl cold or at room temperature.
Two tips
- Make the dressing up to a day ahead and store it in the fridge so dinner comes together more quickly.
- If you want a warmer bite, briefly warm the dressed noodles in a pan over low heat before serving, or mix in a handful of spinach if available.
