I love the flavor of this simple dish! Make it more of a meal by adding meat and/or more veggies. Enjoy!
Thanks! This sounds so yummy You could even add diced cucumber and serve it cold! Love cold peanut noodles.
Yes! I bet that would rock! Thanks Whitney 😀
Love ramen with peanut sauce! Used to order this all the time when we lived in the city. Will definitely try this! Thx!
So easy – you’ll love!
My goodness this looks and sounds delicious, Lina! Thanks for posting! Excuse me as I try to lick the computer screen!!! LOL!!!
I love the photos, by the way.
Thanks Karla!!
How hot is that hot sauce? If not is there anything else you can substitute?
You can use your favorite brand or may red pepper flakes? Just maybe add a little at a time. It balances out the peanut butter 😀
How do you think this would be with cashew butter?
I think you should go for it! Love cashews ❤️
Love celery seed and diced celery in place of spicy stuff in my peanut sauce… Never tried with ramen noodles though, sounds yummy! Thanks!
Oh cool! Thanks for sharing Trish
Sounds good!
Thanks!! we just started my son on a GFCF diet and we just bought some rice ramen from Costco! This will be an excellent way to cook it (I will just sub in chicken broth to cook the noodles in, in place of the seasoning packet, and use gluten free Tamari soy sauce!) Sounds amazing and I am desperate for more recipes so this is perfect timing!
If you are allergic to peanut butter you can substitute it with sesame paste (from the Asian supermarket) and it taste pretty close.
Love that idea! Thanks Sandy
Thanks for the tip! 🙂
I’ve been making something very similar to this for a couple years. The biggest difference is I’ve never tried it with the seasoning packet and I also scramble an egg in a bowl. Once the noodles have been drained I save a little water at the bottom, I put it back in the heat and add the egg and mix it well with the noodles. It makes it creamy. I cook it for just a couple mins and add all the other ingredients. You end up with a creamy, spicy peanuty sauce for your ramen. Ive only made this for one package of ramen at a time so for 4 packages you’d definitely need to use at least 2-3 eggs. Love this recipe.
Oh eggs would be great! Thanks Olivia 😀👍🏻
We’ve been making this for years. my kids LOOOOOOVE it! ramen jazzed up! wish I knew about this when I was in college!
I know I’m addicted. Lol Tastes better than take out and easy! 👍
