Thai Noodle Salad

Now, KitchenAid, you are wonderful. I love you, I can’t live without your stand mixer. And I want to have your everything! But YOU ARE NOT PERFECT.

I’m such a dumb who can’t even manage to use your can-opener for one single time. Always stuck in the middle of the can top circle, I can never have a smooth cut. And the dumbest of the dumb was I used my bare hand to finish the thing off. I got cut. So deeply that I was not able to cook for days.

YOU ARE NOT PERFECT. But I love you.

I’m now just posting what I have in my archive.

Ingredients (serves 4-6):

Dressing
1 cup honey
1 whole red pepper, seed removed
3 garlic clove, crushed
1 teaspoon hot pepper paste
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons oyster sauce
Noodle
1/2 lb capellin noodle or spaghettini, cooked and cooled under cold water, drained
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 red pepper, finely sliced
4 green onion, cut thinly on the diagonal
1/2 cup Italian Parsley, coarsely chopped

Directions:

To prepare dressing, combine honey, red pepper, garlic, hot pepper paste and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until the red peppers are pureed. Add lemon juice, vinegar and oyster sauce, stir well and set aside.

Heat oil over medium heat in a small skillet, and cook garlic just until it is fragrant and begins to brown, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and cool completely.

In a large bowl, toss cooled pasta with garlic and oil. Add red pepper, green onion and parsley. Toss with enough dressing to coat and chill before serving.
