SPICY PEANUT NOODLES



Spicy Peanut Noodles image

Whip up this quick, versatile peanut sauce and pair it with your favorite noodles (rice noodles, yakisoba, egg noodles, spaghetti--whatever you have on hand) for a satisfying bowl that is ready in just 15 minutes. Inspired by Chinese sesame noodles, this recipe relies on peanut butter instead of Chinese sesame paste (zhī ma jiàng) for a nutty, savory flavor, though feel free to sub in sesame paste (or use a combination of both) if you have it at home. The dish is easy to adapt: Add more chili crisp or ginger for a bolder version, a little more sugar for a sweeter sauce or a bit of water to thin it out.

2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 dash ground ginger
1 dash garlic powder

### Tips
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce or tamari: Since soy sauce or tamari are salty, using low-sodium versions is recommended. This helps you control the overall sodium content of the dish, making it healthier.
  • Adjust spice level to your preference: The spiciness of the dish is customizable. You can add more or less Sriracha or red pepper flakes to achieve your desired level of heat.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables not only add flavor but also nutrients to the dish. Use crisp and colorful vegetables for a more vibrant and flavorful result.
  • Roast the peanuts for extra flavor: Roasting the peanuts brings out their nutty flavor and makes them more aromatic. You can roast them in a skillet or in the oven until they are golden brown and fragrant.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after preparation, as the noodles tend to absorb the sauce and become softer over time.
