Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 head garlic (skin removed and sliced thin)
  • 1/4 cup sesame oil
  • salt (to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons rounded white miso
  • 2 tablespoons hot chili sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (plus more for serving, black or white)

Method
 

  1. Place the very thinly sliced garlic in a skillet with the sesame oil. Place over medium heat and gently fry, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is golden brown. Watch it close, it cooks fast! Using a fork, remove from the hot oil to a paper towel lined plate. Toss with salt and set aside.
  2. Turn the heat off the skillet, but leave it on the stove. To the warm oil add the miso, hot chili sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger and lime juice. Whisk until smooth and combined. The miso may seem thick at first, but it should dissolve into a smooth paste. Stir in the sesame seeds.
  3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the soba noodles according to package directions, but be careful not to overcook. They cook in less than 3 minutes, so do not forget about them! Drain the noodles.
  4. While the water is coming to a boil, use a spiralizer to spiralize the zucchini + summer squash.
  5. Add the drained soba noodles and the spiralized squash to the skillet with the miso dressing. Turn the heat back on to medium and toss the noodles + squash with the dressing. Cook 2 minutes or until just warmed through. Remove from the heat.
  6. Divide the noodles among plates or bowls. Top with tomatoes, peppers and green onions. Sprinkle with goat cheese and toasted sesame seeds. Add the garlic chips on top and if desired garnish with fresh basil. Eat!

Notes

- Fry the garlic slices in oil *very* slowly to achieve maximum crispiness without burning.
- Don't overcook the soba noodles; they should have a slight bite.
- Adjust the chili sesame oil to your preferred spice level.
