We made this dish by Bobby Flay to go with a crispy, grilled duck we're doing on the BGE tonight. We started out with a big bowl of steaming, salted edamame and a chilled Sauvignon Blanc. Note: to this we added a chopped green onion, Thai chili sauce, and rice wine vinegar just to finish it off. Great warm weather food!
Ingredients:
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 cup cilantro, chopped
1 jalapeno, chopped
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 lb dried rice vermicelli
2 carrots, julienned
1 cucumber, halved, peeled, seeded and sliced into thin half rounds
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
1/2 cup napa cabbage, finely shredded
1/4 cup dry roasted nuts, chopped
Directions:
1. Place the garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, honey, lime juice, fish sauce and salt in the bowl of a food processor and process until almost smooth.
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the noodles and cook for 2 minutes.
3. Drain, rinse well with cold water and drain again.
4. In a large bowl, combine the sauce, noodles, carrots, cucumber, mint, and napa cabbage.
5. Toss well and garnish with chopped nuts.
