Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 stalks Green onion
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil or avocado oil
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and use a spiralizer to create noodle-like strands. Set aside.
Finely mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, tamari, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, and water. This is the sesame ginger sauce. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sweet potato noodles to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes, tossing frequently, until the noodles are tender but still slightly firm (al dente).
Pour the sesame ginger sauce over the noodles and toss until the noodles are evenly coated and the sauce is heated through, about 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the dish with thinly sliced green onions and chopped cilantro, if desired.
Divide the noodles between plates and serve immediately.
