WATCH HOW TO MAKE FIERY PEANUT SATAY NOODLES:

In a bowl, combine together chili flakes, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, scallions, onions, lots of lemon zest for freshness, and a splash of hot oil.

Add in soy sauce, a splash of vinegar, some honey or maple syrup to balance the heat, our creamy peanut butter, some coconut milk for that velvety texture, and a splash of lemon juice. Give this all a good mix and this is what I love about this recipe!

Just brush your tofu or paneer skewers with our sauce for the noodles and bake, airfry, or grill until golden brown and charred.

Thin the sauce out to your desired consistency with some hot water and then toss in your noodles and shredded veggies. I’ve used bouncy udon noodles and some carrots and cucumbers for a crisp bite.

Garnish this with some peanuts, your beautiful satay skewers, and you’re ready to dig in!
