Asian Noodle, Mushroom, and Cabbage Salad

This Asian-inspired noodle salad is a vibrant vegetarian dish that balances earthy shiitake mushrooms with the crisp, peppery notes of Napa cabbage. Infused with aromatic ginger, garlic, and a bright sesame dressing, it offers a wonderful depth of flavour and a variety of textures. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a light yet satisfying meal that works just as well served warm as it does chilled the following day.

Perfect for a healthy midweek dinner or a prepared lunch, this recipe uses fresh Chinese egg noodles and protein-rich hard-boiled eggs to create a balanced plate. You can easily prep the components ahead of time, making it a stress-free option for busy schedules. Serve it scattered with plenty of fresh coriander and spring onions for a fragrant, shop-bought quality finish at home.

How to make Asian Noodle, Mushroom, and Cabbage Salad

Place mushrooms in medium bowl; add enough boiling water to cover. Let stand until mushrooms soften, about 45 minutes. Drain mushrooms. Cut off stems and discard; thinly slice caps.

Heat peanut oil in heavy large wok or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cabbage, ginger, garlic, and mushrooms. Stir-fry until cabbage wilts, about 2 minutes. Add 2-inch spring onion pieces; toss until green tops begin to wilt, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Mix in 1 tablespoon soy sauce.

Cook noodles in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain well; place in large bowl. Whisk sesame oil, next 3 ingredients, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce in small bowl. Add to noodles. Add sliced eggs, 3/4 cup coriander, and cabbage mixture; toss to blend well. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill, tossing occasionally.)

Sprinkle salad with 2 chopped spring onions, chopped egg, and remaining 1/4 cup coriander and serve.
