This dish is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I will never have the regular pad thai again. Why would I when this tastes as good and is 10000% healthier and lighter? No more feeling like a bloated dumpsump after having thai!! PS: I know the pictures are less than pretty, but put that aside and try anyway. If you get a nicer pic than me, please let me know 😛
Raw Kelp Noodle Pad Thai
2 servings, about 10 min
- 1 package raw kelp noodles, rinsed
- 2 heaping tablespoons smooth and palm-oil free peanut butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 onion, sliced
- 1 carrot, sliced
- 3 tablespoons tamari
- Juice of 1 lime (or 1 tablespoon white vinegar)
- 1 green onion, sliced
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 cup (2 dl) fresh chopped coriander/cilantro
- 5 tablespoons roughly chopped peanuts
- A dash of sesame seeds or gomasio salt
This is how I made it:
- Make the sauce by mixing peanut butter, tamari, garlic and lime juice. Keep mixing until a sauce forms.
- Rinse the kelp noodles and cover them with water in a bowl. Add the baking soda and stir. Let them noodles soak for about 10 min before rinsing. This is to soften them.
- Place the rinsed kelp noodles in a big bowl. Add the onion and carrots and mix together.
- Add the sauce to the kelp noodles. Using two utensils, mix it as if you were tossing a salad so that everything is well coated by the sauce.
- Taste-test for seasoning, adding something spicy if you’d like.
- Garnish with cilantro, green onion and peanuts and let it sit for 15-20 min for the flavours to set.
- Serve and enjoy 🌝
