This cold peanut noodle salad with spicy peanut sauce is one of the most popular recipes from my first cookbook and a major winner with my own family as an easy weeknight dinner.

The spicy peanut sauce in this recipe is so good that it would make even a cardboard box taste delicious :) The recipe below is for a cold ramen salad but you could also use this as a thai peanut sauce for chicken satay, spring rolls or even as a veggie dip.

Spicy Peanut Sauce:
½ cup plain natural peanut butter
¼ cup very hot water
¼ cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
1 to 2 teaspoons hot sauce
½ teaspoon dried ginger
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Noodles and Toppings:
3 - 4 packages ramen noodles
1 cup frozen shelled edamame
2 cups sliced cooked chicken or 450g firm tofu, cubed (optional)
1 cup thinly sliced red cabbage
¼ cup salted roasted peanuts
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Lime wedges (optional)


To make the Spicy Peanut Sauce, combine the peanut butter, hot water, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, hot sauce, ginger and garlic powder in a small blender and purée until smooth.

Alternatively, you can whisk it like crazy until emulsified. If it’s too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of hot water.

Cook the ramen (discard the seasoning packets) in a large pot of salted boiling water until just tender.
One minute before the noodles are cooked, stir in the edamame.
Drain the whole pot and rinse both the noodles and the edamame with lots of cold running water.
Combine the cooled noodles and edamame with chicken/tofu, cabbage and three- quarters of the Spicy Peanut Sauce.
Toss very well, adding the remaining peanut sauce if you like the dish saucier.
Divide among 4 bowls and top with peanuts and green onions. Serve with lime wedges.
Make it ahead: The Spicy Peanut Sauce lasts well in the fridge for up to 5 days.
