Peanut Butter Chilli Oil Noodles
Step 1.
Start by making the crispy leeks: cut the leeks into thin matchsticks and get them in a cold frying pan along with the vegetable oil. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook for 5-7 mins or until golden, stirring occasionally.
Step 2.
Meanwhile, get started on the noodle sauce: mince the garlic, ginger, spring onion and coriander. Get them in a large mixing bowl with the chilli powder, salt and granulated sugar.
Step 3.
Transfer the crispy leeks to a plate, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and set aside. Set aside â…“ of the leek oil for garnish. Heat the remaining leek oil for another minute until almost smoking then pour it into the mixing bowl with the aromatics and stir to combine.
Step 4.
Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar and water to the noodle sauce mixing bowl and stir to combine.
Step 5.
Cook the noodles a minute shy of the packet instructions. Meanwhile, cut the cucumber into thin matchsticks and roughly chop the coriander.
Step 6.
Drain the noodles and add to the mixing bowl with the sauce. Add the sliced cucumber and chopped coriander and mix until everything is fully combined and well-coated.
Step 7.
Divide the noodles between bowls, drizzle over the remaining leek oil and top with a generous amount of fried leeks. Enjoy!
