Cold Black Bean Noodles with Sesame and Sweet Chili Dressing

Black Bean Gluten Free noodles are long and skinny. Costco sells a 2 lb. box, but you can by it by the package as well. The flavor is a light black bean taste with a very pleasant chewy texture. This recipe is adapted from a Korean cold glass noodle dish that I also enjoy making.

• 1 carrot peeled and sliced thin
• 4 oz mushroom sliced thin
• 1 oz chives sliced in 1 inch sections
• 1/2 white onion sliced thin
• 2 scallions chopped
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 cucumber peeled, seeded and sliced
• 1 cup bean sprouts
• Sesame Seeds

For dressing you will need oyster sauce, sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and sesame oil.

Boil the black bean noodles as directed on package. Drain and run under cold water. Set aside.

Heat wok or fry pan with cooking oil. Stir in carrots, mushrooms, chives, onion, scallion and garlic.

Saute until carrots are tender and onion is translucent but not browned.

Mix together 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of sesame oil and toss with noodles. Mix in stir fried vegetables, adding more sesame oil as needed. Mix in cucumber and bean sprouts. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and Serve cold.

NOTE: You can add kick to this dish by adding crushed red pepper to the recipe!
