Ingredients:

• spaghetti noodles (200g)
• peanut butter (100g)
• coconut milk (200ml)
• soy sauce (30ml)
• sriracha (10ml)
• lime juice (1 lime)
• garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• ginger (1-inch piece, grated)
• carrots (1 large, julienned)
• red bell pepper (1, thinly sliced)
• cilantro (for garnish)

Kitchen Tools:

• large pot
• saucepan
• whisk
• grater
• chef’s knife
• cutting board

Start by cooking the spaghetti noodles according to the package instructions. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, sriracha, lime juice, garlic, and ginger. Whisk until the sauce is smooth and heated through.

In a large pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the julienned carrots and sliced red bell pepper, cooking until slightly tender. Add the cooked noodles to the pot along with the peanut sauce. Toss everything together until well combined.

Serve the noodles hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. The creamy peanut sauce paired with the crunchy vegetables will create a delightful texture and flavor combination.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, with 4 servings at around 200g each. One serving is estimated to be around 400 calories.

One tip to make this dish even more flavorful is to sprinkle some crushed peanuts on top before serving. This will add an extra crunch and nuttiness to the dish.
