Ingredients
Scale
- 5 (3-ounce) packets instant ramen noodles
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 bunch green onions (divided)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro (optional)
- 4 teaspoons sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped dry-roasted peanuts (optional)
- 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 2–1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1–1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons ginger paste
- 2 teaspoons garlic paste
- 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha
Instructions
- Bring 12 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add salt and ramen noodles. Stir occasionally and cook 30 seconds less than the package directions.
- Drain and rinse under cold water for about 15 seconds to prevent sticking. Shake off excess water well.
- In a glass measuring cup or wide-mouth mason jar, whisk together all sauce ingredients until smooth and fully combined.
- Thinly slice the green onions until you have about 2/3 cup, reserving a small amount for garnish. If using, finely chop the cilantro.
- Thoroughly dry the pot used to cook the noodles and return the drained noodles to it. Add green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
- Pour the sauce over the top and gently toss with tongs until evenly coated.
- Garnish with chopped peanuts and reserved green onions, if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Note 1: The total weight of the noodles is 15 ounces.
- Note 2: Feel free to adjust the amount of Sriracha to your spice preference.
