Raw Pad Thai w/ Young Coconut "Noodles"


My unorganized raw interpretation of a classic pad Thai dish.


1 young coconut
1 mandarin orange
1/2 cup raw peanuts
1tbsp Bragg's
1 tsp sea salt
red pepper flakes
1tsp sesame seeds
1/3 cup sprouts of your choice





For the Noodles
Split the young coconut in half and reserve the water from it. With a spoon or straw, scrape the meat of the coconut out in long strands that resemble noodles. Reserve these in the coconut water until your ready to plate them.







For the Sauce
Put peanuts, a little coconut water, braggs, salt and red pepper flakes in food processor. Blend until you reach the thickness you want. I made it thick but it probably would but much better thinner so you could just spoon it over everything and not have to mix it up so much.

Put the noodles, some orange wedges, the sprouts and your sauce together, sprinkle it with some sesame seeds and enjoy!
