If you're looking for the best spicy peanut noodles recipe, you are in the right place. It is the best I've ever had! So delicious, creamy and vegan. The perfect lunch or dinner idea!
I'm not lying if I am saying that this recipe has become my favourite noodles recipe. I mean, who doesn't like peanut butter. As you can see, or perhaps you will see on my posts, I am a big fan of pasta. Any pasta! If you see me on a corner crying, please bring me a bowl of tagliatelle, and I will love you forever, and my sadness will go away in a minute. Of course, I am just kidding, but I genuinely love pasta dishes and peanut butter, so when I first tested this recipe, I knew that it couldn't go wrong! I just had to find the perfect ingredients and right quantities for the sauce, et voila!
I've tried this recipe with crispy tofu as well, which was scrumptious, but last time I was in a rush, so I had no time to fry the tofu, only to cook the veggies.
Oh yeah...by the way. Did I mention that this dish is not only super delicious and saucy but also quick to make? It will be ready in 20 minutes, including prep time as well. Sounds great, right?
