Spicy Thai Noodles

Spicy Thai Noodles are a popular dish in Thai cuisine, known for their spicy and savory taste. These noodles are typically made with rice noodles, vegetables, and a mixture of spices and sauces.

Since there is a pandemic going around (Covid 19) I’ve decided to share some good recipes that require the use of a lot of dry storage or pantry items.  This recipe contains all items that can be easily stored in a pantry such as chili sauce, vegetable oil, sesame oil, honey, and soy sauce. 

This recipe involves infusing oils together with dry spices and a strainer is needed to discard the crushed red pepper flakes. A mesh colander works great for straining spices.

Spice Level 

How spicy do you like your food on a scale of 1 to 10? I’d rate these noodles at a 7. What makes them spicy? The oil is infused with crushed red pepper flakes and the crushed red pepper flakes get strained out of the oil. Adding hot sauces to this will make it even spicier. 

Add fresh garnish to this dish like cilantro, peanuts, and toasted sesame seeds. If you want to make this a meal add some protein to it like cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu if you’re vegetarian. 

Ingredients Needed

• Spaghetti noodles, cooked and drained. Can also sub linguine, rice noodles, or ramen noodles. 
• Crushed Red Pepper -  are small pieces of dried hot peppers, typically made from cayenne, that are crushed or ground into small flakes.
• Vegetable oil is a type of oil that is extracted from different plants, such as soybean, sunflower, canola, and palm.
• Sesame oil is a high-quality oil that is extracted from sesame seeds. It is commonly used in cooking, particularly in Asian cuisine, due to its unique nutty flavor and aroma.
• Honey - Always go for a raw honey and one that is unfiltered. Preferably locally sourced. 
• Soy sauce - Use a Low Sodium or if you don’t have that on hand go for Tamari or Coconut Amino Acids
• Veggies: Green onion, Carrots, peeled and shredded, Cilantro, Peanuts

How to make Spicy Thai Noodles 

Cook the noodles: Boil noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside. 

Make the infused oil: Cook oils together over medium heat with the crushed red pepper flakes. When the oil is hot enough, strain red pepper flakes. Reserve oil in a bowl. 

Make the Sauce: Add the strained oil back into the skillet with honey, soy sauce, and chili sauce. Toss the pasta together with the sauce. 

Whisk together the honey and soy sauce into the oil.

Assemble and Garnish! Pour mixture on top of noodles and toss together until noodles are well coated. Chop the veggies and peanuts and add them to the noodles.

Makes 8 servings: Serving size: 1 cup 

What other ingredients can be added? 

Make this dish a whole meal and add in some protein like shrimp, chicken, or tofu. Add in extra veggies like snow peas or shredded cabbage. 

What can I serve with spicy thai noodles?

Spicy Thai noodles are a delicious and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed on their own or as part of a larger meal. If you're looking to serve something alongside your spicy Thai noodles, there are a few options that can complement the dish nicely.

One great option is a Cucumber Salad. The cool, refreshing flavors of the cucumber can help balance out the heat of the noodles, and the crunchiness of the cucumber can add a nice textural contrast.

Another option is to serve this with a stir fry like Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry. These veggies will provide some extra nutrition and can also help to cool down your palate between bites of the spicy noodles.
