Ingredienser

16 ounces brown rice noodles [alex's note: I used udon and it was fine]

3 large cloves garlic or 4-5 small

1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger

1 tablespoon oil

---

Sauce:

2/3 cup creamy peanut butter

4 tablespoons low sodium tamari or soy sauce

1/3-1 cup hot water (hot water mixes with peanut butter more easily than cold)

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1-2 tablespoons sriracha

1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (can omit for less spice)

Optional: 2 tsp chili garlic sauce

Fremgangsmåte

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook noodles according to package instructions.

Finely mince the garlic and add to a saute pan with 1 tbsp of oil. Any oil will work here.

Saute over low heat for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. Add in the grated ginger and saute for 1 more minute.

Remove from heat and add in all remaining sauce ingredients (start with 1/3 cup of water) and whisk together until smooth, adding more water as needed to reach your desired consistency. How much you need will depend on the brand of peanut butter you used as well as personal preference.

Taste and add more soy sauce, sriracha, or any other seasonings as desired.

Add about 1/2 of the sauce to cooked pasta and mix together. I intentionally made extra sauce in case you want to add some chicken, tofu, veggies etc.

Serve with crushed peanuts, scallions, and red pepper flakes.
