We use peanut butter in a lot of stuff, but our peanut butter noodle soup has to be one of the best! It's a spicy, creamy and straight up delicious dish that takes a lot of influence from Asian cooking - following the classic spicy, sweet, sour and salty combination.
You can mix up the veg that you put in the soup - we often use mushrooms, broccoli and spinach, but it's a pretty flexible dish so go wild and make your own favourite version of our peanut butter noodle soup!

Peanut butter noodle soup is a winner in our house, and is so comforting. You can add more or less chilli powder depending on how spicy you like it, and we recommend adding fresh coriander and spring onions as garnish!

- Add the broccoli and spinach, and put the noodles on in a separate pan of boiling water and cook. Top tip: put the rice noodles in boiling water then turn the hob off and leave them to soak. This helps them to not be sticky once they're cooked. They'll probably take about 5-8 minutes but check the packet and adjust accordingly.150 g broccoli, 100 g spinach, 200 g rice noodles

Absolutely love this dish and cook it at least twice a month (though could quite easily double that number, such is its deliciousness!)

This is a regular dinner in our house, and usually enough for a smaller portion for lunch the following day. A really tasty and satisfying meal
