If you have been following my blog, you know how often I've made sesame noodles or peanut noodles or a combination of both. This time I made it spicy! I adapted this Spicy Sesame Peanut Noodles recipe from Nigella Lawson's Sesame Peanut Noodles recipe. I'm actually not a big fan of overly spicy foods but these Spicy Sesame Peanut Noodles are the perfect amount of spice. I was just also thinking of friends I know who have nut allergies and I might try using tahini in place of nut butters next time. Enjoy this new spicy version of sesame peanut noodles!
