These cold sesame noodles with cucumber offer a refreshing yet satisfying meal, perfect for a quick high-protein lunch or a light summer dinner. The dish relies on a creamy, savoury peanut dressing balanced with zingy rice vinegar and a hint of heat from sriracha. Using chilled noodles ensures a firm texture that carries the bold flavours of ginger and garlic beautifully, while the addition of fresh coriander and roasted peanuts provides a delightful contrast of textures.

This versatile vegetarian dish is excellent for meal prep, as the flavours continue to develop when left to marinate. The combination of grated and sliced cucumber adds both moisture and crunch, making it a nutritious option that feels indulgent without being heavy. Serve it as a standalone main or as part of an Asian-inspired spread.

45ml rice vinegar
60ml de salsa de soja

How to make Cold Sesame Noodles with Cucumber

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Prepare a bowl of ice water.

Cook the noodles in boiling water until al dente, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water and soak for 5 minutes, until well chilled. Drain again, return to the bowl, toss with the peanut oil, and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame seeds, honey, ginger, garlic, red pepper flakes, and sriracha. Fold in the grated cucumber, half the spring onion, and half the peanuts. Add the chilled pasta and toss to coat thoroughly. Transfer to a serving bowl, twirling the pasta into a nest shape. Top with the sliced cucumber, coriander, and the remaining spring onion and peanuts.
