 |
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 8 oz buckwheat soba noodles
- 1/2 small head of cabbage (green, savoy, or even
- 3 tablespoon sesame seeds, NOT toasted! + 1 teaspoon
- 1 shallot, diced fine
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (dark or light)
- 1 teaspoon lemon, lime or orange juice
Directions:
Heat the oil over medium heat and saute the shallots and
sesame seeds until the shallots are clear and a couple of
the sesame seeds pop. Add the cabbage, and stir to coat.
Cook until looks "limp", stirring frequently. Meanwhile,
cook the noodles to your liking (al dente, etc) and drain
well. Add the noodles to the cabbage mixture, heating
through. Just before serving, stir the citrus juice into
the mix, and serve with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
My mother, who loves buckwheat, inspired this recipe,
asking me to create something the colors of a tree. She's
my biggest fan!
