If you live near a Chinese market, pick up barbecued or smoked duck there. Otherwise, smoked chicken or turkey from the supermarket (or leftover roast chicken) would be terrific tossed with the noodles. To make it a meal, add a platter of chilled silken tofu. Drizzle the tofu with soy sauce and chili sauce, then top with chopped green onions. Coconut ice cream with fresh berries and lychees would make a nice dessert.

Ingredients

Makes 4 to 6 servings

Dressing:

2 tablespoons soy sauce

Noodles:

3 1/2 ounces snow peas or sugar snap peas, thinly sliced lengthwise (about 1 1/2 cups)

  • Fantastic! I had to substitute smoked duck bacon and fresh angel hair pasta, but we loved it. The sauce added a subtle flavor - certainly not too heavy on the soy sauce.

  • I don't get the comment about tasting like soy sauce, but to each his own; we found the sauce to be tasteful, and nuanced. Basically I served up a couple of frozen duck hindquarters with 5 spice powder as a main, and the noodle dish as a side. Used Thai rice noodles, and didn't have any cilantro or jalapeño: Even so, the family loved it.

  • Why is this recipe listed under vegetables when it has MEAT?

  • Don't bother with this one. It basically tastes like soy sauce. It has some potential if you add more stir-fry ingredients - baby corn, water chestnuts, broccoli.
