Spicy peanut noodles

Spicy peanut noodles.

This morning I wanted peanut butter and honey on toast. Unfortunately, the baguettes I made two days ago have already hardened up like cement. 

I feel a crouton recipe coming soon...

While I recovered from my crushing disappointment, I stood in my usual spot in front of the open cupboard and stared. 


The less you concentrate and stare with a kind of unfocused stupor (the kind that is only brought about by being in a pre-caffeinated state) - the more creative you will get.

At least that is what I tell myself.

No recipe for this because it is a really basic peanut sauce and you should tweak it any way you want. 

I also steamed up some broccoli and asparagus to go with the noodles.

I will tell you what I put in my sauce this morning:

- soy sauce
- peanut butter
- sesame oil
- water
- brown sugar
- chili paste
- ginger
- white vinegar

The whole key to the sauce is knowing what spice level you want and the level of sweet or savory you desire.

I make mine heavy on the soy sauce and lighter on the sweet.

 Happy Tuesday everyone!!
