How to make Aunt Kerrie's Noedeslaai (Noodle Salad)
Cook the pasta
Follow the package instructions to cook the pasta until al dente. Once done, drain and rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any excess starch and prevent sticking. Add to a large serving bowl.
You can use any pasta shape, though twisty shapes hold the dressing well. Be careful not to overcook the pasta to avoid a mushy texture.
Prepare the salad base
Add the chopped red onion, peppers, grated carrot, and corn kernels to the salad.
Crumble the feta cheese into the salad and mix until evenly distributed. Set aside.
For best results, chill the salad for at least 1 hour before serving. It stays fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Make the dressing
Combine the Wellington’s Full Flavour Tomato Sauce, Wellington’s Chutney Mild, and the rest of the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth.
Alternatively, place the ingredients in a jar and shake until well mixed.
Assemble the salad
Toss the salad with the dressing and garnish with fresh chopped parsley and chopped coriander.
Serve alongside your favorite braaivleis and sides and enjoy!
Preparing the salad a day in advance enhances the flavor. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and keep it cool when serving outdoors. Avoid freezing or exposure to high heat.
