Mussel Thai Noodle Bowl Recipes

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Whisk the vinegar, 1/4 cup water, the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, ginger, scallions and chile pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Make the noodle salad: Cook the noodles as the label directs; drain and set aside. Whisk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the fish sauce, sugar and lemongrass in a large bowl; add the broccoli and toss to coat.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if needed, add the broccoli in a single layer and cook until charred on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until crisp-tender, about 2 more minutes.
• Assemble the bowls: Divide the noodles among 4 shallow bowls; top with the broccoli, cucumber, celery, lettuce and mint. Drizzle with the dressing and top with fried onions, peanuts and the reserved scallion greens.

Steps:

• Heat the peanut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the fresh ginger and all but 1/4 cup of the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ground chicken, turmeric, chili-garlic sauce and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, breaking up the meat, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the chicken broth and mustard greens (the pot will be very full, but the greens will wilt quickly). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the broth has reduced slightly and the greens are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil; remove from the heat and add the vermicelli noodles, stirring to separate them. Let the noodles soak until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and shake dry. Use kitchen shears to cut the noodles into smaller pieces.
• Divide the pickled ginger, noodles and chicken-broth mixture among bowls. Top with peanuts, cilantro and the reserved red onion; season with salt.

Steps:

• Whisk the soy sauce, peanut butter, rice vinegar, honey, lime juice, garlic and ginger together in a small bowl until well combined. Set aside.
• Bring 3 to 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot.
• At the same time, heat the sesame oil in a large wok or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red cabbage, carrot and zucchini. Cook, stirring often, 3 to 4 minutes. At the same time, add the rice noodles to the pot of boiling water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Using tongs, gently transfer the cooked rice noodles directly to the skillet. Add the sauce and toss until everything is well combined and evenly coated.
• Serve immediately topped with chopped green onion and peanuts.

Steps:

• To prepare the sauce, simmer the chicken broth, onion, ginger, lemon grass, lime leaves, and lime juice together until the liquid is reduced by half.
• Then, add fish sauce, coconut milk, curry paste, and paprika; cook for 10 minutes.
• Season the rice flour with salt and pepper, lightly dredge the shrimp in the flour; tap off excess.
• Heat peanut oil in a skillet until very hot.
• Add the coated shrimp to the hot oil and cook about 2 minutes each side.
• Add the mussels, asparagus tips, and shiitakes.
• Cook for 2 minutes just until heated through.
• Strain the sauce over the shellfish and vegetables.
• Poach the Udon noodles in hot salted water, drain and place in a warm bowl.
• Add the shellfish sauce.
• Top with pea tendrils, herbs, cashews, and sprouts.

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups of water to the boil. Put the stock, shallot, garlic, lime leaves, and ginger in a saucepan, cover and let it bubble away at a moderate to high heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until you have a thickish, softish mess at the bottom of the pan. Check to make sure it isn't either burning or just getting too dry for comfort, and add a bit of boiling water if it is. Meanwhile, put the mussels in a sink filled with ice-cold water. Chuck away any that don't sink and then, as you remove them, make doubly sure by chucking away any that don't shut when you tap then sharply. I wouldn't expect you to have to throw many away, so don't worry unduly.
• Add the chile pepper to the mixture in the pan. After about 30 seconds, or just long enough to get them out of the sink, add the mussels and then throw over them 1/2 cup boiling water, and then the lime juice, mirin, and fish sauce mixed together. Cover, give the pan a shake, and leave on a high heat for about 3 minutes, by which time the mussels should have steamed open. Add half the coriander, shake again, and pour into a noodle bowl. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander and eat.
