Seriously Simple: A new twist on pasta salad: Asian style

By Diane Rossen Worthington, Tribune Content Agency on

1 cup bean sprouts

1/8 pound snow peas, cleaned, stems removed, sliced lengthwise into strips

Garnish

3 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced

Lime wedges

Sprigs of fresh mint

 

1. Cook the noodles in a large pot of boiling water over medium-high heat for about 7 minutes, or until barely tender and still firm.

2. Drain the noodles immediately and rinse them with cold water until cooled. Drain them well, place in a large bowl and toss with the vegetable oil so they don't stick together.

4. Add the shrimp, carrots, bean sprouts and snow peas, and toss again. Taste for seasoning. Cover and refrigerate.
