Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For vinaigrette
6 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced fresh jalapeƱo chile, including seeds, or to taste
1 garlic clove, chopped
For noodles
8 ounces bean thread (cellophane) noodles
1 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced diagonally
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced diagonally (1 cup)
1 firm-ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and thinly sliced
2 thin carrots, very thinly sliced diagonally
1 cup fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Make vinaigrette:
  • Blend all vinaigrette ingredients in a blender until smooth.
  • Make noodles:
  • Soak noodles in cold water in a bowl until pliable, about 15 minutes, then drain in a colander. Cut noodles in half with scissors.
  • Cook noodles in a 4-quart pot of boiling salted water , stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain noodles in colander and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Drain noodles again well, then spread out on paper towels and blot excess liquid.
  • Toss noodles with dressing in a bowl. Add cucumber, scallions, mango, and carrots and gently toss until just combined. Serve topped with cilantro sprigs.
