Peanut Noodles

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium high heat. Add noodles and a little bit of salt and cook according to package directions, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to help separate the noodles. Once cooked, drain the noodles well and set aside.

Step 2

While cooking the noodles, combine the peanut butter sauce ingredients in a medium mixing bowl including peanut butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, hot water, garlic, and ginger. Mix well until smooth, about 1 minute. If it is too thick for you, add in a little more hot water to thin it out. You can also mix the sauce mixture in a saucepan and heat it over low heat for 1 minute to help the ingredients blend into each other more easily, especially the peanut butter. Set aside.

Step 3

To assemble the noodles, add the cooked noodles, shredded cabbage, carrots, cilantro, and peanut butter sauce in a large mixing bowl. Toss well to combine and serve immediately.
