Recipe Introduction


I like to use 8" long Japanese wheat noodles, sold around here as
tomoshiraga somen.


List of Ingredients




½ tsp. coriander seeds, ground
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. black pepper, ground
3 Tbsp. rice vinegar
2 Tbsp. lime juice
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
½ tsp. dried chili pepper, ground
1 lb. pork from chops, sliced into thin strips
1 lb. largish salad-sized shrimp
1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
1 Tbsp. fresh mint, torn into little pieces
3 green onions, chopped
¼ cup chopped cilantro
½ lb. oriental noodles


Recipe



Cook the pork over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, in a wok or a
skillet, using a little sesame oil.

Cook the noodles according to the directions on the package.

Combine the sugar, salt, vinegar, lime juice, onions, cilantro, and
spices in a bowl. Add the pork, shrimp, cucumber, and noodles and toss.
Adorn with mint and serve.

If you're not going to serve it right away, save adding the shrimp until
you're ready.

May be chilled for a couple of hours, but serve it soon, and not cold
straight from the fridge.
