RICE NOODLES WITH GARLICKY CASHEW SAUCE



Rice Noodles With Garlicky Cashew Sauce image

This dish is loosely based on an Indo-Chinese garlic noodle dish. Here, a combination of Italian and Chinese condiments like cashews, Parmesan, soy sauce and anchovies create a creamy, umami-rich garlic sauce. This recipe uses rice noodles, but you could use egg noodles, ramen or any type of noodle. Since Parmesan, anchovies and soy sauce tend to fall on the saltier side, taste as you go and season the sauce accordingly. Feel free to reduce the amount of garlic, as it leans toward the generous side. These noodles are best eaten warm as soon as they're mixed with the sauce.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup raw cashews
8 ounces stir-fry rice noodles
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, plus more for finishing, if desired
1/4 packed cup grated Parmesan
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon anchovy paste
1 teaspoon black pepper
Fine sea salt
2 scallions, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Soak the cashews in 2 cups of boiling water for 15 minutes.
  • Start the noodles: As cashews soak, prepare the noodles according to package directions. Reserve 3/4 cup of the hot cooking water and drain the noodles, then transfer the noodles to a large mixing bowl. Toss them with 1 tablespoon sesame oil to prevent them from sticking.
  • Drain the cashews and discard the soaking water. Transfer the cashews to a blender. Add the Parmesan, garlic, soy sauce, anchovy paste and black pepper. With the blender on high speed, add 1/4 cup of the reserved hot cooking water, then add 2 tablespoons at a time until the mixture emulsifies. Taste and adjust salt.
  • Add the sauce to the noodles and toss to coat. Divide the noodles among 4 serving bowls. Garnish with scallions, sesame seeds and toasted sesame oil, if using. Serve immediately.

SOUTH INDIAN-INSPIRED COCONUT RICE NOODLES WITH TOFU AND VEGETABLES



South Indian-Inspired Coconut Rice Noodles with Tofu and Vegetables image

This one-pot dish takes inspiration from South Indian flavors (with some added influence from the Southeast Asian noodle dishes khao soi and laksa, for good measure), using garam masala to add depth and complexity without having to simmer the dish for hours. Skip the mass-market garam masala and spend a little more on a high-quality blend-or better yet, make your own. And feel free to swap out the vegetables with your favorites-eggplant, cabbage, and broccoli would all work well here.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons neutral oil
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
One 1-inch piece ginger, minced or cut into small slices
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
2 small carrots, cut into 1-inch-long sticks
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon soy sauce
One 13.5- to 14-ounce can coconut milk
1 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
One 16-ounce package extra-firm tofu, cut into 1-inch cubes
4 ounces dried rice vermicelli
Fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring often, until the onions are translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garam masala and turmeric, letting the spices toast and coat the onions, ginger and garlic, for about a minute. Add the peppers, carrots, salt and soy sauce and cook, stirring occasionally, until the veggies are just starting to soften (don't let them cook through, or you'll end up with mushy veggies!), about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the coconut milk and broth to the Dutch oven, turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer, add the tofu; taste and adjust the salt, if necessary. Cover and let cook until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the vermicelli, making sure it gets submerged in the liquid-it'll cook quickly!
  • Garnish with lime juice and chopped cilantro.
