On a hot summer day, you don’t want to cook Pasta? Angel Hair Pasta (Capellini) can be cooked in 2-3 minutes. Cool the cooked pasta in cold water, and mix with the fiery sauce. Add plenty of refreshing salad vegetable and some protein, I added Roast Pork and Boiled Egg today. It’s spicy, sour, sweet and salty. You will love this dish.

Steps

10 minutes

1

In a mixing bowl, combine all the Sauce ingredients. *Note: I added 1/2 tablespoon, but I wished if I had added more.
2

Before you start cooking Angel Hair Pasta, prepare all other ingredients. I recommend to cut them into thin strips, so that it would be easy to eat them with Angel Hair Pasta.
3

Cook Angel Hair Pasta in boiling salted water according to the instruction on the package. It takes 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, cool them in cold water, drain, cool again, then drain. Pasta should be COLD.
4

Add the drained Pasta and other ingredients to the Sauce, and mix to combine. Add some Crispy Chilli Oil (OR Chilli Sauce) for extra heat.
5

*Note: You can arrange the ingredients on top, then pour the Sauce over before you eat.

Tips

How to cut Cucumber into thin strips

Without a vegetables slicer, you can cut Cucumber using a knife into thin OR very thin strips. This is particularly good when you mix Cucumber with noodles.
