You will need:
- 1 serving of cooked, drained noodles that have been rinsed with cold water (here is a brand/type that we would use)
- Alternate: ramen noodles! Just don’t add the seasoning packets.
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon of the following:
- soy sauce
- peanut butter
- sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons of white vinegar
- 1/2 tablespoon of chili garlic sauce/something spicy like sriracha
- 1/2 garlic clove, grated
- 1/2 tablespoon white sugar
- Optional: toasted sesame seeds
Optional: 1-2 tablespoons of chili crisp (this is chili flakes fried in oil, but a brand that isn’t spicy. mainly just adds flavor)
Mix sauce while noodles are cooking, then once they’re drained and cold, toss together noodles and sauce. Garnish with chopped cilantro and scallion to taste. Enjoy.
Tips:
- This recipe is very easy to scale up or down and is very forgiving.
- You can store this overnight, but depending on the noodle, it may soak up a lot of the sauce so you may need to make more to dress it with before serving.
- You can technically eat this warm, but I would suggest not eating it hot- the cooler temperature allows you to fully taste all of the lovely flavors.
- I think shrimp goes really well with these, but you can add any kind of meat you’d prefer.
