Ma La Cold Pasta
A unique variation of sze chuan liang mian (麻辣涼面), but using San Remo angel hair pasta, this recipe is bound to be a hit with the mala lovers; one that really plays with your tastebuds with the mala spice and ‘shiok’ cold noodles.
First we soak the cooked angel hair pasta in an ice bath to keep it nice and cold. Then comes a sauce mix using mala paste, and the stir frying of enoki mushrooms, black fungus, lotus roots and other vegetables.
It’s nicely finished by mixing the pasta with a chilli mixture, and topping with fried mala vegetables. Share this with your mala-loving friends!
