Place the minced garlic in a small, heat-proof bowl (like ceramic or stainless steel). Heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Carefully pour the hot oil over the minced garlic and let sit for 5 minutes.
\nCook noodles according to the package directions. Once the noodles are cooked, reserve \u00bd cup of the cooking liquid, then rinse the noodles under cold water, drain, and transfer to a large bowl. Pour the garlic and oil over the noodles and toss together.
\nUsing a vegetable peeler, peel the carrots to create carrot ribbons. Toss the carrots with the noodles.
\nTo make the sauce, add the California Avocado, lime juice and zest, reserved cooking liquid from the noodles, cilantro, basil, scallions, canned coconut milk, curry paste, sugar, and salt into the bowl of a food processor or blender.

\nToss the noodles and carrots with the avocado and green curry sauce. Garnish with slices of avocado, scallions, toasted sesame seeds, and chili flakes (optional) and serve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
