Thai Peanut Noodle

This noodle is so easy to make and yummy. No meat but very nutritious and protein packed too.
I got this recipe from prevention health magazine and modify some of it to my family taste.

Ingredient:
•1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter
•1/2 cup of evaporated milk (i used regular milk)
•1 cup shredded carrots
•1 cup thinly sliced peeled cucumber
•18 sugar snap peas
•2 cup of broccoli floret cut to small pieces
•12 oz spaghetti
•2 tsp sesame oil
•1-2 tbsp soy sauce
•pinch of salt

Method:
•omitting salt and cook spaghetti as package direction put in broccoli and peas at the last 5 minutes. Strain, separate veggies from spaghetti. Reserve the water about 1/2 cup and put spaghetti back into hot pan.
•In another large pan, put in a bit olive oil, saute carrot, cucumber, for 2-3 min,add in steamed broccoli and peas, add in 1tsp of sesame oil and salt to taste. Set aside.
•combine peanut butter, 1 tsp sesame oil,milk and soy sauce (by 1 tbsp, cause each brand has different level of saltiness), using hand mixer, blend until smooth (add some reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick)
•toss pasta with peanut butter sauce until evenly coated

•Bon apetite

for 6 serving.
