Can’t get enough satay Thai flavors? Make these Thai lettuce wraps with peanut satay next! The velvety peanut sauce is made with a secret and surprising ingredient… feta! The feta replaces the traditional salty soy sauce, making it extra creamy and delicious. It’s unconventional, and not at all traditionally Thai, but it’s delicious! The crumbly texture of the feta melds into the other sauce ingredients, softening in the warming process and becoming smooth and luscious. This noodle salad is made with some of the wonderful flavors that we love in Thai cuisine, such as peanuts, ginger, garlic, fish sauce, and rice noodles. However, it is not an authentic recipe. This recipe incorporates some ingredients that are not used in Thailand, namely salty feta cheese. Even though this is not an authentic Thai recipe, we are sure that you will love it and it will leave you dreaming of slurping noodles from a Bangkok food cart.
Rice noodles: When you’re buying the rice noodles, make sure you pick some that are wide-ish ribbons. The tiny vermicelli noodles are more common, but they’re very delicate. I find it hard to toss the noodles with the sauce and veggies without the noodles breaking if I use vermicelli. Thai noodle salad: Corn, shredded purple cabbage, cucumber, carrot, radishes, mint, cilantro, thai basil Peanut sauce: All-natural salted peanut butter, feta, water, garlic clove, ginger, sesame oil, fish sauce, and lime juice. Toppings: Extra feta cheese, chopped peanuts, nori, and sesame seeds.
You can also top it off with some crispy tofu, shrimp, or Thai chicken, if you’d like to add a protein source.
