This delicious recipe is gluten-free and can be prepared within a few minutes making it a perfect side dish for your festive party or a regular dinner. 

We won’t restrict you to creatively make it the way you want. I have loved noodles since I was a child and am quite picky about my meals. 

My mother used to make plain noodles with no spices and veggies, and I would shove that dish down with my favorite hot chocolate. But now as I have grown older my preferences have changed regarding fiber intake and all that stuff. 

But one thing remain constant is my love for noodles. However, you can be creative and make your dish crunchy, nutty, and fresh with your favorite ingredients. 

Stay tuned with us to know how delicious Thai noodle salad is prepared with essential ingredients, what are serving suggestions, and storage tips. 

Ingredients Required In Thai Noodle Salad 

There are several ingredients that come together and make this perfect Thai noodle salad. 

Here we will get a breakdown of ingredients: 

Noodles 

I used mung bean noodles commonly go with the name, ‘Transparent noodles’ and made the meal heartier with abundant amounts of antioxidants and other nutrients. 

Are you wheat-sensitive, these gluten-free noodles can be your best shot at keeping yourself healthy. 

Noodles stay fine in normal cooking if you are serving it hot, but when it comes down to cold noodle recipes, you should overcook noodles so that they remain soft even when kept in the fridge. 

Prawns & Chicken 

An added protein is never a waste, right? You can add uncooked prawns and minced chicken to your favorite Thai noodle salad and have a delight. 

Vegetables & Herbs 

Salad is never wholesome without veggies, so we will add tomatoes, cilantro, onions, and green onions to give it a fresh look. Toss these veggies into your salad the way you want!

Palm Sugar 

I love the hint of sweetness with the tangy taste of salad that uses spices and condiments. So using a well-ground palm sugar seems to be the best choice and that must be available in your pantry.

Nuts

Roasted Peanuts, if you love the nutty taste in your salads, add a handful of roasted peanuts into it to get a great mouthfeel. 

Fish Sauce 

This fermented umami flavoured sauce can make your dish perfect. Besides that, it’s loaded with tons of benefits making it a great choice for people looking for a healthy side meal. 

All these ingredients can easily be bought from your nearby mart if not already there in your pantry! Make a hearty side meal and enjoy it with your loved ones! 

What You Can Serve Along Thai Noodle Salad? 

• The way we have added extra proteins in the form of prawns and chicken, we can serve our Thai Noodle salad exactly the way it is. 

• It can be served best with grilled chicken and glazed salmon. 

• You can even serve it with roasted or barbecued chicken and with lamb chops.

• What if you want to keep it vegan? You can always go for tofu or air fryer tofu that goes well with Thai noodle salad. 

Storage Tips for Thai Noodle Salad 

Although I suggest you eat it right after your preparation as there’s no alternative to the fresh dish. 

But if necessary and you have to store it to be used later on, wrap your Thai noodle salad in an air-tight container and keep it in the refrigerator. It will be stored perfectly for 5 days in its optimal condition. 

We haven’t added any leafy vegetables, so you don’t have to worry about your salad getting soggy. It will maintain its crispness.
