Fresh Zucchini and Homemade Spicy Thai Sauce

Delicious Thai Zucchini Noodles – fettuccine pasta with a homemade, spicy Thai sauce, topped with toasted sesame seeds.

The sauce is made with honey, Thai red curry paste, and soy sauce (or use Tamari sauce). Asian comfort food!

I love making Asian-style noodles at home, such as these Asian Noodles with Mushrooms and Snow Peas or this Asian Noodle Salad with Peanut Sauce.

All these recipes are so easy to make and are so good, I make them all the time to add variety to the dinner menu at home.

These fettuccine noodles with pan-fried zucchini in Asian sauce is no exception.

There is so much flavor in this simple recipe! If you’re looking for an unusual way to use up your zucchinis – use them in this Asian-inspired dish
