My Thai Sesame Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Heat peanut butter in microwave for 20 seconds to soften.
• In a large bowl whisk together softened peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, sambal oelek and honey (if using).
• Add spaghetti, green onions and sesame seeds.
• Toss well.
• Chill until ready to serve - or serve at room temperature.
• NOTE: Please adjust ingredients to suit your tastes.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add noodles and cook until barely tender, about 5 minutes. They should retain a hint of chewiness. Drain, rinse with cold water, drain again and toss with a splash of sesame oil.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil, the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame paste, peanut butter, sugar, ginger, garlic and chili-garlic paste.
• Pour the sauce over the noodles and toss. Transfer to a serving bowl, and garnish with cucumber and peanuts.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the spaghetti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Melt the peanut butter in a large microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl, 15 to 20 seconds (depending on your microwave). Whisk the honey, tamari, and chili sauce into the peanut butter, then stir in the sesame oil and ginger. Mix in the garlic and green onions and toss with the spaghetti. Top with the sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, salt and pepper.
• Place in plastic bag and add pork.
• Seal and turn to coat.
• Chill for 1 hour, or up to overnight.
• Cook noodles according to package directions.
• Drain well and toss with onions, sesame oil, salt and pepper flakes.
• Meanwhile, heat skillet over medium high heat, add peanut oil, snow peas and carrots, cook, tossing frequently, about 5 minutes until crisp tender and set aside.
• Add one more tablespoon oil and sear pork chops, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until done.
• Add vegetables back to pot and toss to coat.
• Serve over noodles.
