Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Shirataki noodles
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Szechuan peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for stricter Keto)
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks Green onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Crushed peanuts or cashews (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the shirataki noodles by draining them and rinsing thoroughly under cold water. Boil the noodles for 2-3 minutes to improve texture, then drain and pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the Szechuan peppercorns for 1-2 minutes until aromatic. Crush them slightly with the back of a spoon or a mortar and pestle.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, ginger, crushed Szechuan peppercorns, and red chili flakes. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), rice vinegar, erythritol, and sesame oil. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
Add the prepared shirataki noodles to the skillet and toss them thoroughly in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the noodles to absorb the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the noodles with sliced green onions, crushed peanuts or cashews (if using), and freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Spicy Garlic Szechuan Noodles!
