This week, try this bowl of comforting and flavourful Sweet and Spicy Tahini Veggie Noodles!
Ready in just 30 minutes, this vegan dish is packed with everything you crave in a weeknight dinner.
The star of the show is a homemade sauce that bursts with sweetness, spice, and the rich nuttiness of tahini.
This recipe is also incredibly customizable! Add tofu, chicken, or your favourite protein for a complete meal. Plus, it’s a hit with kids – my daughter especially loves the touch of spice!
Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
(Sweet & Spicy Sauce)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
⅓ cup tahini (homemade or store-bought)
2-3 tablespoons brown sugar or honey
½ tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1-2 tablespoons hot chili paste (like sambal oelek)
2-4 tablespoons water
(Veggies)
1 tablespoon sesame oil (preferably toasted)
1 large head of broccoli, chopped into florets (about 4-5 cups)
1 cup sliced peppers
Salt and pepper to taste
(Noodles)
1 packet Rice Noodles out Linguine pasta
(For Serving)
Red pepper flakes (optional, for extra spice)
Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions:
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, tahini, sweetener, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, chili paste, and water. Aim for a pourable consistency (like salad dressing). Set aside.
Heat sesame oil in a pot over medium heat. Add broccoli and peppers, season with salt and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring often, until slightly tender-crisp and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, prepare rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Add the noodles and tahini sauce to the cooked veggies. Toss to coat everything evenly. Garnish with sesame seeds and extra red pepper flakes (if desired).
Enjoy!
