Spicy Peanut Sauce with Noodles

By fuzzygroup

Ingredients

• 1 lb pasta
• 4 tbs sesame oil
• 1 (green) onion
• 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (I used cashews but I suppose any will do)
• 3 tbs vinegar
• 2 tbs ginger
• 2 tbs chopped garlic
• dash of lemon juice
• cayenne and chili pepper to taste
• Toasted Sesame seeds
• salt to taste
• 1/3 cup- 1 cup of hot water

Preparation

Step 1

Salt a pot of water for the pasta. Add the pasta as soon as it boils. Drain, toss with 2 tbs of sesame oil and set aside.

Add the rest of the sesame oil to a pan and heat to medium/med high. Add chopped onion, ginger, garlic, cayenne, and chili pepper. Saute for a few minutes. Add peanut butter, honey, vinegar, lemon juice, and 1/3 cup hot water. Stir till combined, let simmer and check taste combo. For every minute or so it takes to tweak the flavors, you will have to add more water-but keep in mind this is supposed to be a hearty sauce.

Serve sauce over noodles, garnish with nuts, and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

This can also be prepared with chicken, or tofu.
