SO HOW'D IT GO?
I had to make this because the tantalizing photos were calling to me.
I love it! The sauce is so delicious and peanut buttery.I used 1 box of udon noodles, and added the full 3 tbs of chili oil and 1/2 a small can of coconut milk and basically left everything else the same. The green onions and cilantro put it over the top. thanks for a delightful dish. I will make this again for sure. ;)b
I made this tonight, and it remains to be one of our favorites! I added quite a bit of hot pasta water so that it would be extra saucy! :P
Okay, I really love this recipe!
I didn't have any green onions so I used a handfull of chives
This recipe was really yummy! I do have to say that I had to add about a 1/2 a cup of soy milk to make it more of a sauce. At first when I combined the original ingrediants it was still the consistancy of peanut butter. But after I added the milk it was amazing! Oh and for those who like alot of spice, I tried it a second time using thai garlic chili paste :)>>> and it was seriously spicy and delicious! Thanks for the reat recipe!
this looks really good..
You should try it! It's not like Ramen though.. ; )
this looks really good..
:)>>> :biggrin:
SO GOOD!! I used rice wine vinegar instead of balsamic, agave for the sweetener, thai sweet chili sauce, and I was unfortunately out of cilantro. Absolutely delicious, and next time I'll buy some cilantro (it's one of my favorites). AC, thanks for the super yummy recipe.
I made this for dinner tonite. It was GREAT. I added 1/3 cup coconut milk to the sauce. My husband loved it. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful dish. ;)b
Oh boy this is good!!
I used olive oil and didn't measure anything.
