Step 1:
Soak noodles in water for a few minutes while you’re making the sauce.
Step 2:
Make the sauce in your food processor or blender:
- 1 clove garlic, sliced
- 0.5 – 1 red chilli, sliced
- 1 cm ginger, sliced
- 3 heaped teaspoons almond butter
- 3 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- 3 teaspoons agave
- 3 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
Step 3:
Drain the noodles and return to bowl. Pour marinade over noodles and mix through.
Step 4:
Divide noodles between 2 plates. Top with whatever you have in the fridge … I used chopped coriander, grated carrot, mixed sprouts and salad greens.
Step 5:
Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup soaked almonds
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup organic dates
- Pinch of himalayan salt
Add everything except dates to the food processor and grind well. Add dates and mix until a ball shape begins to form. Form small walnut-sized balls and dehydrate for a couple of hours until the balls are dry on the outside but deliciously moist within.
Great photos. I got so hooked on noodles like that during the summer, aren't they wonderful? Your recipe is almost the same as what I do but I like to add lime leaf and sometimes lemongrass. Have you tried that yet? If you can find it, lime leaf is so obviously from the gods.
You have been so prolific in the kitchen Antony, or maybe you always are and are just taking the time to share–thanks for that. Good inspiration!

@EcoMama – I really enjoyed those noodles and will definitely try them again. Haven't come across lime leaf but I'll definitely keep an eye out! I like lemongrass. I'm glad you're enjoying the more frequent posts. I think I am both more prolific and taking time xx
Fab recipe for entertaining non-raw types for sure, Anthony!
photos of the food look awesome. need to get on making new recipes.
I ate your kelp noodles for lunch today. It was sooooo good…. Thank you for sharing Antony!
@Cosmic – yes I think they might even like it š
@griffen – oh yes do and take some pictures for blog š
@Tebasile – I'm so pleased! thanks for letting me know š
That is one beautiful noodle salad–I adore kelp noodles and can't wait to try sea spaghetti. I am going to order some. I can find the kelp noodles locally and enjoy them often.
Your cookie balls look wonderful–we love our raw cookies in this house.
Peace & Raw Health,
Elizabeth
Your kelp noodle salad looks INCREDIBLE! So colorful too! Now you really got me wanting to pick up some kelp noodles. I haven't seen Black Swan yet but have heard good things about it. Looks so intriguing.
@Elizabeth – life's too short to live without (raw) cookies š
@HiHoRosie – Maybe you could eat the noodles at the cinema? š
ha ha! Good idea! Hey Antony, have you read the book Little Bee (in the UK it's called The Other Hand)?
@HiHoRosie – By Chris Cleave? No I haven't but the review seems mysterious. Shocking, exciting and deeply affecting … an ethical struggle … Have you read it? Would you recommend it?
Yes, that's the one. When I started reading it I thought of you. If you come across it, I suggest picking up a copy. I had to work really really hard at not letting the tears spill from my eyes while commuting into work this AM (on the bus). I sorta succeeded. š I'm not finished with it but almost. I had NO clue what it was about when I bought it but wow is it emotional and powerful.
@HiHoRosie – Thank you for thinking of me! I'll definitely read it – picture me sobbing on the bus and the underground one day soon š
ha ha! Sorry, Antony! But at least I warned ya. Hopefully, your future commuter mate will spare a hanky. I just hoped no one noticed me wiping my eyes.
Oh my gosh, yes! Gorgeous! YUM!
And look at all these comments!
What do the kelp noodles taste like?
Do you soak your shredded coconut, if it's the dried kind?
(And thank you so much for your sweet, supportive comments on my Phase I efforts. You're doing fantastic yourself with all that you're focusing on, and I love that you share so much with us. :o)
@Ms.Adventuress – Kelp noodles don't really taste of anything that I can detect. They are a good carrier of flavour and have a delicate crunch. I do use the dry kind of shredded coconut but I buy it online from a raw supplier and it's not too dry. I don't soak it – though apparently I could and then make a milk from it …
Love your pizza photo! Must make pizza!
Ever since I ate Ames (from http://www.rawandpeace.com.au/) almond, chilli and lime sauce at her raw food night back in Oz in December, I've been trying to replicate ever since! Thank you so much for this recipe as I've still not quite got it right. YUMBO!
@GirlonRaw – it really is a delicious sauce in all it's versions I suspect š
Oh, fantastic, knowing the kelp noodles are fairly harmless. :o)
(And I'll so be watching when you tackle pizza crust…'cause I missed pizza crust class at the TOL.)
Hi Antony,
I'm so hooked on your sauce and will share your recipe tonight at our potluck š
