NOODLES, FIRST COURSE

SPICY PEANUT BUTTER NOODLES

2 comments

With the days getting warmer, I know it is time to bring one of my favorite spring-summer dishes back to the table: the spicy peanut butter noodles! It is a cold noodle dish, which is handy to prepare and can be ready in no time. All you need are a pack of dried noodles (or pasta), a can of peanut butter and the basic Asian condiments.

The peanut butter fulfills my craving for Asian flavors. At the same time, I like to add some home-made chili oil to spice it up. To balance the creamy and nutty texture of the sauce, I usually put some vegetables (cucumbers, spinach, carrots, etc.) on the side to add freshness and crunchiness to the dish.
