Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
2 cup snow peas trimmed
8 oz rice sticks Ka-Me
1 tsp dark sesame oil
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 tbl minced ginger
2 x garlic cloves minced
1/2 cup lowfat coconut milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 dsh ground red pepper
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
Instructions:
Instructions: Cook snow peas and rice sticks in boiling water 3 minutes. Drain well. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions, ginger, and garlic, and saute 2 minutes. Stir in milk and next 5 ingredients (milk through red pepper); bring to a boil. Cover; reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Combine snow peas, rice sticks, and green onion mixture in a large bowl, and sprinkle with cilantro.

NOTES : Made this for lunch today. Fast and easy. I had cut back a little on the ginger (afraid it would be too hot) and way back on the curry (I dont always like the flavor). But the rice stick must be so starchy and/or bland, I ended up adding a lot more seasoning as we were eating. So dont be cautious - this really does absorb the flavor. I didnt end up with too much of the coconut flavor. I did add about 1/2 c of chopped peanuts, but it really increases the fat and WW points (from 5 to 8), so next time Ill leave them out, although it still qualifies as lowfat with 27% CFF. I would definitely make this again, I just wouldnt play with the seasoning and I might add shrimp or chicken if making it for a dinner meal.
