There are many different recipes for peanut noodles, but this one is probably the easiest I have tried and it is very tasty as well.
This recipe uses a nonstick pan and just enough water to cook and moisten the noodles, unlike ramen soup which is eaten in broth.
Not only is it easy but is a very cheap meal idea.
This recipe is easily enough for two servings. If you are eating alone, you can save some for later.
For this recipe, gather:
- 2 packets of ramen noodles
- Peanut butter and tahini (if you have some)
- Sesame oil
- Soy sauce
- Honey
- Banana Peppers, celery, and onion (if you have them)
- Garlic powder, salt and pepper
How to prepare:
Put your two packets (170 grams) of ramen noodles into a nonstick pan:
Add 1 tablespoon peanut butter and 1 tablespoon tahini (or use 2 tablespoons of peanut butter) and 1 tablespoon honey. I found that tahini was milder in flavor, but you may like the stronger peanut butter flavor.
Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil:
Add 1 ½ cups water (add up to 2 cups if you would like):
Turn on the heat. When the mixture starts to boil, stir and mix. (Add celery, green pepper, and green onion if you have them). Then cover.
I cooked for about 3 minutes with the lid, however, I checked periodically to make sure it did not start to stick, and also to stir it up a little. (If you do not use a nonstick pan, please make sure you stir them constantly or they will stick to the bottom and burn… trust me on that!)
Eat immediately.
So easy and good!
