🌰 Nigella Ruby Noodles Ingredients

• 450 millilitres of beetroot juice
• 2 limes
• 2 fat cloves garlic
• 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
• 2 teaspoons Maldon sea salt flakes (or 1 teaspoon fine sea salt)
• ½ teaspoon dried chilli flakes
• 350 grams spaghetti
• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil plus 2 teaspoons more
• 3 teaspoons fish sauce or vegan “fish” sauce
• 1 teaspoon plus 1 x 15ml tablespoon brown rice vinegar
• 4 teaspoons soy sauce
• 4 x 15ml tablespoons roughly chopped fresh coriander
• 2 x 15ml tablespoons finely chopped chives

👩‍🍳 How To Make Nigella Ruby Noodles

1. Toss the pasta into boiling water and season with salt as directed.
2. Combine the beetroot juice with the juice of one lime in a separate pan that is big enough to hold the pasta when it’s ready.
3. Incorporate the peeled and minced or shredded garlic, and proceed to incorporate the grated ginger, salt, and chili flakes. Put the pasta in the pan and reduce the heat to low to simmer.
4. Toss the spaghetti with the salted boiling water and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and add to the beetroot juice that is simmering. Increase the heat to make the beetroot juice bubble more vigorously.
5. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente. Allow up to 8 minutes for this, but start checking at 5. Spaghetti cooks at a slower rate in the beetroot juice, though this does depend on the spaghetti you’re using. On occasion, toss it with a spaghetti fork to avoid sticking.
6. Remove the pan from the heat once the spaghetti is cooked and stir in 2 teaspoons of soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon of brown rice vinegar. Gently mix and set aside in a shallow bowl to cool.
7. Combine half a lime’s juice with the extra 2 teaspoons of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of brown rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of fish sauce, and 2 teaspoons of soy sauce in a little jug. Spoon over the noodles and stir to mix.
8. Season to taste and make adjustments as necessary. You might prefer a little more salt or lime juice. Toss in the chopped herbs, mix well, and dig in.
