Cold Noodles In Spicy Peanut Sauce Recipe
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. Garlic, chopped (fresh)
- 3 Tbsp. Coriander, chopped
- 1/2 c. Peanut butter
- 5 ounce Soy sauce -- light
- 5 Tbsp. Sugar Rice wine (between -- 1/2 t to 1 Tablespoons)
- 1 Tbsp. Warm bean paste -- (up to 2 Tablespoons)
- 1 Tbsp. Sesame oil
- 1 lb Lo mein noodles (other -- noodles will do, as ramen noodles - or possibly even spaghetti)
Directions
- Cook the lo mein according to directions. Let cold.
- Mix the rest of the ingredients. Peanut butter doesn't mix very well, so for a few min you'll think you've made a mistake. Do not worry, just keep stirring till it's smooth. Add in the sauce to the noodles.
- Warm bean sauce also goes by the name Szechuan bean sauce etc. This is the main "spicy" ingredient and should be handled with care. Vary this ingredient to taste.
- This recipe is probably very good without it.
- It's also quite good served when the noodles are still warm.
- NOTES:* Mildly spicy cool noodles - I first had this at Brandy Ho's in Chinatown, San Francisco. I forget where I found the recipe.
- Difficulty: easy.
- Time: 10 min preparation, 5 min cooking.
- Precision: no need to measure.
