  • 1-2 tablespoon Soy sauce adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Dark mushroom soy sauce optional
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic chili oil or any chili oil with sediment
  • 1 tablespoon Gochugaru or other chili flakes of choice

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Cook noodles in the pressure cooker with enough water to cover. Use manual setting for 1-2 minutes. Perform a slow release after cooking.
  • Drain noodles and set aside.
  • In a bowl, mix peanut butter, soy sauce, dark mushroom soy sauce, garlic chili oil, and gochugaru until smooth.
  • Add rice vinegar and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves and sauce becomes creamy. Slowly add water to reach desired consistency.
  • Toss cooked noodles in sauce. Fold gently to coat evenly. Finish with chopped spring onions, coriander, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sesame oil. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you're rushed, use pre-cooked noodles. Swap gochugaru for red pepper flakes. For creaminess, add a spoon of coconut or soy milk to sauce.
