Ingredients

4 ounces Whole-wheat spaghetti
1 c Frozen edamame (shelled soybeans)
2 Scallions, thinly sliced
2 tbsp Oyster sauce or vegetarian "oyster" sauce
2 tbsp Rice-wine vinegar
1 1/2 tbsp Reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp Sugar
1 tsp Toasted sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon Crushed red pepper
1 tbsp Canola oil
1 Medium carrot, cut into matchsticks
1 Small red bell pepper, cut into matchsticks

Preparation

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add spaghetti and edamame and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is just tender, 8 to 10 minutes or according to package directions. Drain.

Meanwhile, whisk scallions, oyster sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil and crushed red pepper in a small bowl until the sugar is dissolved.

Heat canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add carrots and bell peppers and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the pasta and edamame. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is crispy in spots, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sauce and stir to combine.
