Thai Inspired Spicy Noodles

Need a quick fix for a perfect “in house” date night? Cook this up in the time it takes to boil some noodles. With a homemade infused oil, some fresh veg, and a glass of White Rajah and a spicy night lies ahead. Mix in a Wes Anderson film and it’s a sure thing.  Enjoy!

Ingredients
 

8 oz bag of lo mein noodles
½ cup seasme oil
¼ cup veg oil
2 tsp crushed red pepper (you can double or triple this if you want some serious heat.)
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup honey
2 TBS seasoned rice wine vinegar

½ cup shredded carrots
2 green onion chopped, both green and white parts
1 cup roughly chopped peanuts
a handful of cilantro chopped  (2-3 TBS)

Directions
Infuse the oil
In a small sauce pan heat oils with crushed red pepper on a med low heat for 2-3 minutes, taking care not to burn.  Turn off heat and allow to cool. Strain out red pepper and reserve the oil. To the reserved oil whisk in soy sauce, honey, and rice wine vinegar. Set aside.

Cook lo mein noodles according to the package directions. Drain and rinse. Toss the noodles with seasoned oil and the remaining ingredients. It’s up to you but this is when we cover ours in Sriracha sauce!
