Ingredients
  

  • 300 g Cooked Noodles Remember that these need to be egg free for this to be vegan
  • 1 Courgette
  • 200 g Red Cabbage
  • 1 medium Carrot
  • 4 medium Spring Onions
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Chives
  • 20 g Black Sesame Seeds Or regular sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • ½ Lime
  • 2 tbsp Dark Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup Or honey
  • 1 tsp Tahini
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Use a vegetable peeler to peel the courgette into ribbons. Place these in a colander or sieve and season generously with salt. The salt will draw out the water from the courgette so place the colander over some kitchen paper or on a draining board. This can be left for 30 minutes.
  • Cook your noodles according to the instructions and place aside to allow to cool down.
  • Finely grate the carrot and chop the red cabbage into thin strips. Chop or slice the spring onions.
  • In a jug, mix together the sesame oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, tahini and the juice from the lime.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the courgette, carrot, spring onion, cabbage, sesame seeds, chives and noodles. Pour over the sesame dressing and toss together.
